MetaboLights: open data repository for metabolomics

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 how data public on MetaboLights are being reused by the community. Metabolomics resources and data are available under the EMBL-EBI's Terms of Use at https://www.ebi.ac.uk/metabolights and under Apache 2.0 at https://github.com/EBI-Metabolights.
