Can I use this skill to identify unknown metabolites?

Yes, the skill supports mass-to-charge (m/z) searches with various ion adducts and mass tolerances to help identify potential compounds.

What is the primary source of data for this skill?

This skill accesses the NIH Common Fund's Metabolomics Workbench repository hosted at UCSD, containing over 4,200 processed metabolomics studies.

What output formats are supported for the data?

The skill primarily retrieves data in JSON format for programmatic use, but also supports human-readable tab-delimited text (TXT).

Does it provide access to gene and protein information?

Yes, it can retrieve gene and protein data associated with specific metabolic pathways and metabolite metabolism.

How does this skill help with inconsistent metabolite naming?

It utilizes the RefMet database to map common names to a standardized nomenclature and hierarchical chemical classification.
