Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are widely used in industrial manufacture of fermented foods and regarded as cell factories for production of pharmaceutical and food products. Lactococcus lactis, due to its small genome size and simple metabolism, has been considered a model organism for strain design strategies and metabolic engineering. Metabolic modeling provides a platform to conduct in silico experiments with biotechnological and biomedical applications. With a fully detailed kinetic model, time-course simulations, response to different input can be predicted and system controllers can be…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are widely used in industrial manufacture of fermented foods and regarded as cell factories for production of pharmaceutical and food products. Lactococcus lactis, due to its small genome size and simple metabolism, has been considered a model organism for strain design strategies and metabolic engineering. Metabolic modeling provides a platform to conduct in silico experiments with biotechnological and biomedical applications. With a fully detailed kinetic model, time-course simulations, response to different input can be predicted and system controllers can be designed. For L. lactis, the dynamic models for the central carbon metabolism have already been constructed. However, these models lack our compound of interest and need to be extended. Provided the topology of pathway and kinetic parameters, a dynamic model that describes the glycolytic pathway in L. lactis is reconstructed using convenience kinetics. This model is now improved by estimating the parameters using in vivo Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) data fitting.
Autorenporträt
I am a graduate in Computational Systems Biology, currently working as a lecturer at Department of Biotechnology, Kathmandu University, Nepal. Control points of metabolism and coordinated regulations in metabolic pathways fascinate me. Machine learning, data visualisation, medicine, molecular biology are also my field of interest.
