Overview

Energy metabolism means all the reactions involved in generating adenosine triphosphate (ATP) from nutrients including both aerobic respiration (oxygen present) and anaerobic respiration (fermentation) (Figure 1). Their production begins with catabolism of large molecular substances. The fragments generated by this process are converted to basic intermediates (like acetyl-CoA), which are further oxidised in citric acid cycle and the resulting coenzymes (NADH + H+ a FADH2) are used in electron transport chain to produce ATP. So far, the energy metabolism of mammalians includes three different forms: oxidative phosphorylation, nitrogen metabolism and sulfur metabolism. The energy metabolism plays an important role in cells' fundamental functions like proliferation and respiration. Its aberrant is closely associated with various diseases like inborn errors of metabolism and Lysosomal Storage Disease. In Creative Proteomics, we provide reliable, rapid and cost-effective energy metabolism analysis service to speed up diseases diagnosis and gain new insights in disease mechanism or treatment.
