Custom software entitled Plant Metabolite Annotation Toolbox (PlantMAT) has been developed to address the number one grand challenge in metabolomics, which is the large-scale and confident identification of metabolites. PlantMAT uses informed phytochemical knowledge for the prediction of plant natural products such as saponins and glycosylated flavonoids through combinatorial enumeration of aglycone, glycosyl, and acyl subunits. Many of the predicted structures have yet to be characterized and are absent from traditional chemical databases, but have a higher probability of being present in planta. PlantMAT allows users to operate an automated and streamlined workflow for metabolite annotation from a user-friendly interface within Microsoft Excel, a familiar, easily accessed program for chemists and biologists. The usefulness of PlantMAT is exemplified using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC ESI-QTOF-MS/MS) metabolite profiling data of saponins and glycosylated flavonoids from the model legume Medicago truncatula. The results demonstrate PlantMAT substantially increases the chemical/metabolic space of traditional chemical databases. Ten of the PlantMAT-predicted identifications were validated and confirmed through the isolation of the compounds using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry solid-phase extraction (UHPLC MS SPE) followed by de novo structural elucidation using 1D/2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). It is further demonstrated that PlantMAT enables the dereplication of previously identified metabolites and is also a powerful tool for the discovery of structurally novel metabolites.
