Grant: Maud Menten New Principal Investigator Prize - Biomedical
University of Toronto
$1,000.00
Determining function of uncharacterized enzymes by quantitative metabolic profiling using high resolution mass spectrometry
FY 2010-11
Summary
Organisms take up nutrients and break them down to release the energy necessary for cellular maintenance or chemically transform them to make the building blocks necessary for growth. Mass spectrometry allows close examination of the chemicals within cells. This project will identify previously unknown metabolic pathways within cells.
