Integrative processing of untargeted metabolomic and lipidomic data using MultiABLER

Summary: Mass spectrometry (MS)-based untargeted metabolomic and lipidomic approaches are being used increasingly in biomedical research.The adoption and integration of these data are critical to the overall multi-omic toolkit.Recently, a sample extraction method here called Multi-ABLE has been developed, which enables concurrent generation of proteomic and untargeted metabolomic and lipidomic data from a small amount of tissue.The proteomics field has a well-established set of software for processing of acquired data; however, there is a lack of a unified, off-the-shelf, ready-to-use bioinformatics pipeline that can take advantage of and prepare concurrently generated metabolomic and lipidomic data for joint downstream analyses.

Here we present an R pipeline called MultiABLER as a unified and simple upstream processing tennessee titans dog bandana and analysis pipeline for both metabolomics and lipidomics datasets acquired using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.The code is available via an open-source license at https://github.com/holab-hku/MultiABLER.
