Metabolism Compound Library

Catalog No. L2560

Metabolism is the general term for a series of chemical reactions that occur in an organism to sustain life. These reactions allow organisms to grow, reproduce and respond to the external environment. Metabolism is the combination of two types of reactions: catabolism and anabolism. Catabolism, also known as dissimilation, can break down nutrients in the environment or in the cells to obtain energy; anabolism, also known as assimilation, can use energy to synthesize various components in the cell. The two types of reaction together allow the organism to maintain its own sustainability in order to adapt to the environment. Almost all chemical reactions in metabolism are catalyzed by enzymes, and the metabolic process from one metabolite to another is achieved by a series of successive enzymatic reactions, which are called metabolic pathways. Metabolic disorders, dysregulation or disruption of the body's metabolic pathways can lead to a range of metabolism-related diseases. Such as diabetes, obesity, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, cancer, etc.
The Targetmol Metabolism Compound Library is a collection of 3059 compounds related to metabolic pathways and is a useful tool for studying metabolism-related diseases.
