Metabolite structure identification has become the major bottleneck of the mass spectrometry based metabolomics research. Till now, number of mass spectra databases and search algorithms have been developed to address this issue. However, two critical problems still exist: the low chemical component record coverage in databases and significant MS/MS spectra variations related to experiment equipment and parameter settings. In this work, we considered the molecule fragment as basic building blocks of the metabolic components which had relatively consistent signatures in MS/MS spectra. And from a bottom-up point of view, we built a fragment centered database, MSFragDB, by reorganizing the data from the Human Metabolome Database (HMDB) and developed an intensity-free searching algorithm to search and rank the most relative metabolite according to the users input. We also proposed the concept of fragment network, a graph structure that encoded the relationship between the molecule fragments to find close motif that indicated a specific chemical structure. Although based on the same dataset as the HMDB, validation results implied that the MSFragDB had a higher hit ratio and furthermore, estimated possible taxonomy that a query spectrum belongs to when the corresponding chemical component was missing in the database. Aid by the Fragment Network, the MSFragDB was also proved to be able to estimate the right structure while the MS/MS spectrum suffers from the precursor-contamination. The strategy proposed is general and can be adopted in existing databases. We believe MSFragDB and Fragment Network can improve the performance of structure identification with existing data. The beta version of the database is freely available at www.xrzhanglab.com/msfragdb/.
This paper presents a method to identify substructures in NMR spectra of mixtures, specifically 2D spectra, using a bespoke image-based Convolutional Neural Network application. This is done using HSQC and HMBC spectra separately and in combination.
We preprocess the raw NMR spectrum and extract key characteristic features by using two different methodologies, called equidistant sampling and peak sampling for subsequent substructure pattern recognition; meanwhile may provide the alternative stra

Complex biological functions are carried out by the interaction of genes and proteins. Uncovering the gene regulation network behind a function is one of the central themes in biology. Typically, it involves extensive experiments of genetics, biochem
