Genetics unravels protein-metabolite relationships.

Abstract excerpt

Integrating molecular traits into genetic studies enhances our understanding of how DNA variation influences complex clinical and physiological phenotypes. In a recent article, Benson and colleagues apply this systems genetics approach with proteomics and metabolomics data in plasma from humans to identify and validate several previously unrecognized causal protein-metabolite associations.
