摘要

"Omics" technologies comprise genomics, transcriptom-ics, proteomics and metabolomics; the last three fields are pooled within the notion "functional genomics". In this review, these techniques which concentrate on aspects of the "course from gene to metabolites" are surveyed especially with regard to bottom-fermenting brewer's yeasts. With the aid of these global methods it is possible to combine a collective knowledge of an investigated organism which is necessary to understand the details of its metabolic system.
