Microbial Metabolomics

چکیده
Microbial metabolomics constitutes an integrated component of systems biology. By studying the complete set of metabolites within a microorganism and monitoring the global outcome of interactions between its development processes and the environment, metabolomics can potentially provide a more accurate snap shot of the actual physiological state of the cell. Recent advancement of technologies and post-genomic developments enable the study and analysis of metabolome. This unique contribution resulted in many scientific disciplines incorporating metabolomics as one of their "omics" platforms. This review focuses on metabolomics in microorganisms and utilizes selected topics to illustrate its impact on the understanding of systems microbiology.

An Invitation to the Marriage of Metagenomics and Metabolomics
Metagenomics seeks to characterize the composition of microbial communities, their operations, and their dynamically coevolving relationships with the habitats they occupy without having to culture community members. Uniting metagenomics with analyses of the products of microbial community metabolism (metabolomics) will shed light on how microbial communities function in a variety of environmen...
متن کاملA Disease-Associated Microbial and Metabolomics State in Relatives of Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients
BACKGROUND & AIMS Microbes may increase susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by producing bioactive metabolites that affect immune activity and epithelial function. We undertook a family based study to identify microbial and metabolic features of IBD that may represent a predisease risk state when found in healthy first-degree relatives. METHODS Twenty-one families with pediatri...

متن کاملMetabolomics: Current analytical platforms and methodologies
During the previous decade, a new array of analytical methodologies and technologies were introduced related to the analysis of microbial, plant and animal metabolomes (complete collections of all low molecular weight compounds in a cell). The scientific field of metabolomics was born. In this review, we discuss advances in methodologies and technologies, and outline applications. a 2005 Elsevi...
متن کاملMetabolomics and Fluxomics of Clostridium acetobutylicum Part 1: Systems-Level Kinetic Flux Profiling Elucidates a Complete TCA Cycle
Project Goals (Abstracts 97-99): Microbial biofuel (i.e. hydrogen and butanol) production holds great promise as a source of renewable clean energy. A critical step towards more efficient biofuel production is improved understanding of the regulation of biofuel-related metabolism and the development of models that are sufficiently accurate to enable rational control of the network behavior. Wit...
