From DNA to FBA: How to Build Your Own Genome-Scale Metabolic Model
Microbiological studies are increasingly relying on in silico methods to perform exploration and rapid analysis of genomic data, and functional genomics studies are supplemented by the new perspectives that genome-scale metabolic models offer. A mathematical model consisting of a microbe's entire metabolic map can be rapidly determined from whole-genome sequencing and annotating the genomic mat...
متن کاملGenome-Scale Metabolic Network Models of Bacillus Species Suggest that Model Improvement is Necessary for Biotechnological Applications
Background: A genome-scale metabolic network model (GEM) is a mathematical representation of an organism’s metabolism. Today, GEMs are popular tools for computationally simulating the biotechnological processes and for predicting biochemical properties of (engineered) strains.Objectives: In the present study, we have evaluated the predictive power of two ...
متن کاملDevelopment and experimental verification of a genome-scale metabolic model for Corynebacterium glutamicum
BACKGROUND In silico genome-scale metabolic models enable the analysis of the characteristics of metabolic systems of organisms. In this study, we reconstructed a genome-scale metabolic model of Corynebacterium glutamicum on the basis of genome sequence annotation and physiological data. The metabolic characteristics were analyzed using flux balance analysis (FBA), and the results of FBA were v...
متن کاملApplication of high-performance computing to the reconstruction, analysis, and optimization of genome-scale metabolic models
Over the past decade, genome-scale metabolic models have gained widespread acceptance in biology and bioengineering as a means of quantitatively predicting organism behavior based on the stoichiometry of the biochemical reactions constituting the organism metabolism. The list of applications for these models is rapidly growing; they have been used to identify essential genes, determine growth c...
متن کاملCapturing the essence of a metabolic network: a flux balance analysis approach.
As genome-scale metabolic reconstructions emerge, tools to manage their size and complexity will be increasingly important. Flux balance analysis (FBA) is a constraint-based approach widely used to study the metabolic capabilities of cellular or subcellular systems. FBA problems are highly underdetermined and many different phenotypes can satisfy any set of constraints through which the metabol...
