This study introduces a new bilinear model to analyze high-throughput metabolomics data, improving the understanding of how metabolite levels relate to sample and metabolite characteristics. The Matrix Linear Model (MLM) framework offers a flexible and interpretable approach for complex biological data analysis.
Area of Science:
- Biochemistry
- Bioinformatics
- Systems Biology
Background:
- High-throughput metabolomics generates extensive data on biological processes.
- Analyzing associations between metabolite levels and sample/metabolite characteristics is complex.
- Current two-step methods for association and enrichment analysis can be inefficient.
Conclusions:
- The proposed MLM approach offers a powerful and integrated method for high-throughput metabolomics data analysis.
- The MatrixLM Julia package provides an open-source implementation for researchers.
- This framework enhances the understanding of complex metabolite associations in biological systems.
