Predicted Relative Metabolomic Turnover (PRMT): determining metabolic turnover from a coastal marine metagenomic dataset

Table 1 Correlations of calculated PRMT scores with relative abundance of selected environmental parameter measurements.

Parameter	PRMT metabolite	PCC
Chlorophyll A	Chlorophyll A	-0.98
Total Organic Nitrogen	alpha-Amino acid	-0.99
Total Organic Carbon	Starch	-0.98
NO₂+NO₃	Nitrite	-0.98
NH₃	NH3	-0.81
Soluble Reactive Phosphorus	Orthophosphate	-0.93

Parameters are relative concentrations of biological measurements from Western English Channel L4 station and PRMT-metabolites are those predicted metabolites that are representative of measured parameters. PCC-scores between measured parameters and PRMT-scores are highlighted in bold if a strong correlation (i.e. in the top or bottom 5^th percentile of randomized resamples) was observed.
