MetaboLights MTBLS90 → GO BP enrichment
Input: MetaboLights MTBLS90
Generated by go_bp_enrichment.py — GO
biological-process ORA via the enzyme/gene layer: metabolite → Rhea
reaction → human Swiss-Prot enzyme (UniProt) → GO BP, with is_a/part_of
closure and a one-sided hypergeometric test (BH-FDR). Live + cached.
- Foreground: 486 human enzymes catalysing reactions that involve the study
metabolites (110 metabolites mapped to reactions). - Background: 4052 human reviewed metabolic enzymes with ≥1 GO BP term.
- Currency/cofactor metabolites: excluded by Rhea reaction-degree ≥ 500 (0 of the study's metabolites dropped: none).

Where this sits
This completes the bridge from metabolomics to GO biological process by
routing through the curated enzyme/gene annotations (the layer GO-CAM also
builds on). It is organism-specific (human) by construction.
Compare with GO molecular-function enrichment (activities) on the same metabolites.
