Abstract
Most textbooks depict metabolism as a well understood housekeeping function of cells. However, organisms vary in their metabolic needs according to the specific niches they reside in and selective pressures encountered therein. Recent advances in analytical chemistry have begun to reveal an unexpected diversity in the composition, structure and regulation of metabolic networks. Here, we review key technological developments in the area of metabolism and their impact on our understanding of the fundamental roles of metabolism in cellular physiology.
