Abstract:
Metabolic Engineering relies on a thorough understanding of how the many different metabolicreactions in the cell to be engineered interacts.
Genome-scale metabolic models offers a very strongtool for performing quantitative analysis of how the many different reactions in the metabolic networkinteracts,and through the addition of kinetic and proteome constraints to these models their predictivestrength has significantly improved.
However,these models can also be used for integrative analysis ofquantitative data,e.g.proteomics and metabolomics data.
In the lecture there will be presentedprogress on how kinetic and proteome constraints can improve the predictive strength of genome-scalemetabolic models for use in metabolic engineering.
Examples will be given of both identification ofnovel metabolic engineering designs and of using these models for gaining novel insight into thefunctioning of metabolism.
