Claim 25:
26. A system for associating metabolites with genes comprising:
a biochemical assertion manager for organizing and storing experimental data inputs, a plurality of genes, a plurality of chemical compounds, and a plurality of reactions each associated with one or more genes of the plurality of genes and one or more chemical compounds of the plurality of chemical compounds;
a hypothesis generation module for generating one or both of compound-centric hypothesis based on chemicals compounds of the plurality of chemical compounds present in the experimental data inputs and the plurality of reactions and gene-centric hypothesis based on the plurality of genes;
a biochemical experiment design module for designing biochemical experiments for testing one or both of compound-centric hypothesis and gene-centric hypothesis generated;
a controller for instructing one or more laboratory instruments, the one or more laboratory instruments comprising a reagent handling equipment, mass spectrometer, a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometer, and/or a sequencer, to perform the designed biochemical experiments;
a data store for storing the experimental data inputs, the plurality of genes, the plurality of chemical compounds, the plurality of reactions, the compound-centric hypothesis and drug-centric hypothesis generated, and results of the biochemical experiments designed.
