Reconstructing Kinetic Models for Dynamical Studies of Metabolism using Generative Adversarial Networks

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Daniel Robert Weilandt, Pierre Guy Rémy Salvy

Kinetic models of metabolism relate metabolic fluxes, metabolite concentrations and enzyme levels through mechanistic relations, rendering them essential for understanding, predicting and optimizing the behaviour of living organisms. However, due to the la ...

Symbolic kinetic models in python (SKiMpy): intuitive modeling of large-scale biological kinetic models

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Georgios Fengos, Maria Masid Barcon, Daniel Robert Weilandt, Zhaleh Hosseini, Pierre Guy Rémy Salvy

Motivation: Large-scale kinetic models are an invaluable tool to understand the dynamic and adaptive responses of biological systems. The development and application of these models have been limited by the availability of computational tools to build and ...

Emergence of diauxie as an optimal growth strategy under resource allocation constraints in cellular metabolism

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Pierre Guy Rémy Salvy

Diauxie, or the sequential consumption of carbohydrates in bacteria such as Escherichia coli, has been hypothesized to be an evolutionary strategy which allows the organism to maximize its instantaneous specific growth-giving the bacterium a competitive ad ...

The ETFL formulation allows multi-omics integration in thermodynamics-compliant metabolism and expression models

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Pierre Guy Rémy Salvy

Systems biology has long been interested in models capturing both metabolism and expression in a cell. We propose here an implementation of the metabolism and expression model formalism (ME-models), which we call ETFL, for Expression and Thermodynamics Flu ...

pyTFA and matTFA: a Python package and a Matlab toolbox for Thermodynamics-based Flux Analysis

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Meriç Ataman, Georgios Fengos, Keng Cher Soh, Pierre Guy Rémy Salvy

Summary: pyTFA and matTFA are the first published implementations of the original TFA paper. Specifically, they include explicit formulation of Gibbs energies and metabolite concentrations, which enables straightforward integration of metabolite concentrat ...
