Network-based prediction of human tissue-specific metabolism
Abstract
Direct in vivo investigation of mammalian metabolism is complicated by the distinct metabolic functions of different tissues. We present a computational method that successfully describes the tissue specificity of human metabolism on a large scale. By integrating tissue-specific gene- and protein-expression data with an existing comprehensive reconstruction of the global human metabolic network, we predict tissue-specific metabolic activity in ten human tissues. This reveals a central role for post-transcriptional regulation in shaping tissue-specific metabolic activity profiles. The predicted tissue specificity of genes responsible for metabolic diseases and tissue-specific differences in metabolite exchange with biofluids extend markedly beyond tissue-specific differences manifest in enzyme-expression data, and are validated by large-scale mining of tissue-specificity data. Our results establish a computational basis for the genome-wide study of normal and abnormal human metabolism in a tissue-specific manner.

Network-based approaches are likely to provide the best hope of integrating all this information by allowing a complete overview of the rumen microbiome because they can capture fundamental properties including taxonomy, functional similarity, metabolic processes, co-expression, and gene-sharing.
“Network-based approaches are likely to provide the best hope of integrating all this information by allowing a complete overview of the rumen microbiome as they are capable of capturing the fundamental properties of the microbial ecosystem including taxonomy (Barberan et al., 2012), functional similarity (Martiny et al., 2015), metabolic processes (Shlomi et al., 2008), co-expression (Zhang and”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
