MetaboLights: open data repository for metabolomics
European Bioinformatics Institute
Abstract
MetaboLights is a global database for metabolomics studies including the raw experimental data and the associated metadata. The database is cross-species and cross-technique and covers metabolite structures and their reference spectra as well as their biological roles and locations where available. MetaboLights is the recommended metabolomics repository for a number of leading journals and ELIXIR, the European infrastructure for life science information. In this article, we describe the continued growth and diversity of submissions and the significant developments in recent years. In particular, we highlight MetaboLights Labs, our new Galaxy Project instance with repository-scale standardized workflows, and…
