Metabolomics is the scientific study of chemical processes involving metabolites, the small molecule substrates, intermediates, and products of cell metabolism. Specifically, metabolomics is the "systematic study of the unique chemical fingerprints that specific cellular processes leave behind", the study of their small-molecule metabolite ...
Nutritional genomics, also known as nutrigenomics, is a science studying the relationship between human genome, human nutrition and health. People in the field work toward developing an understanding of how the whole body responds to a food via systems biology, as well as single gene/single food compound relationships.
Metabolomics: Study of metabolism and the function and interactions of metabolic breakdown products, or metabolites. 4. Transcriptomics: Study of the full complement of RNA in an organism's cells.
KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) is a collection of databases dealing with genomes, biological pathways, diseases, drugs, and chemical substances.KEGG is utilized for bioinformatics research and education, including data analysis in genomics, metagenomics, metabolomics and other omics studies, modeling and simulation in systems biology, and translational research in drug development.
Metabolomics: Metabolites: All products of a biological reaction (including intermediates) Metagenome: Metagenomics: Genetic material found in an environmental sample: Molecular Biology: The genetic material is assumed to contain DNA from multiple organisms and therefore multiple genomes, hence the inclusion of the prefix meta-. Metallome ...
Nutritional epigenetics is a science that studies the effects of nutrition on gene expression and chromatin accessibility. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is a subcategory of nutritional genomics that focuses on the effects of bioactive food components on epigenetic events.
“Genetic factors likely drive men’s efficiency in burning carbs and women’s efficiency in burning fat,” says Scott Keatley, RD, co-owner of Keatley Medical Nutrition Therapy. Those genetic ...
Nutritional science (also nutrition science, sometimes short nutrition, dated trophology [1]) is the science that studies the physiological process of nutrition (primarily human nutrition), interpreting the nutrients and other substances in food in relation to maintenance, growth, reproduction, health and disease of an organism.
