From annotated genomes to metabolic flux models Jeremy Zucker Broad Institute of MIT & Harvard August 25, 2009
Outline • Metabolic flux models • Tuberculosis • Annotating genomes • Rhodococcus opacus • Neurospora crassa
E-flux • Goal: To Predict the effect of drugs on growth using expression data and flux models • Resources: • Boshoff compendium • Mycolic acid pathway • Solution: use differential gene expression to differentially constrain flux limits
E-flux results • Our method successfully identifies 7 of the 8 known mycolic acid inhibitors in a compendium of 235 conditions, • identifies the top anti-TB drugs in this dataset .
Future Tuberculosis Goals To model hypoxia-induced persistence using: • Proteomics, • Metabolomics, • Transcriptomics • Fluxomics • Glycomics • Lipidomics
TB Resources • 3 FBA models, • Chemostat experiments • 27 genomes sequenced in TBDB • On-site TBDB curator. • Systems Biology of TB omics data

Reconstructing Metabolic models with Pathway-tools • EC predictions from sequence • PGDB from Flux model • Automatically refining flux models based on phenotype data • Applying expression data to Flux models for Omics analysis
EFICAz • Goal: Predict EC numbers for protein sequences with known confidence. • Resources: ENZYME, PFAM, PROSITE • Solution: homofunctional and heterofunctional MSA, FDR, SVM, SIT-based precision.
sbml2biocyc • Goal: Generate PGDB from FBA model • Resources: SBML model • Solution: • sbml2biocyc code to transform SBML data to generate • reactions, • metabolites, • gene associations, • citations for PGDB.
Biohacker • Goal: search the space of metabolic models to find the ones that are most consistent with the phenotype data • Resources: • KO data. • Initial metabolic model. • EC confidence predictions • Solution: MILP algorithm.
Omics viewer • Goal: Googlemaps-like interface for cellular overview that enables pasting flux, RNA expression, etc • Resources: • Pathway-tools source code • OpenLayers, • Flash, • Googlemaps API
Rhodococcus opacus:Goals • To model lipid storage mechanism for biofuels.
R. opacus: Resources • Sinsky lab • Biolog data • Expression data • Genome sequence • EC Predictor
R. Opacus solution • Use EFICaz to make EC predictions • Use reachability analysis to guide outside-in model reconstruction • Use pathway curation to guide inside-out model reconstruction • Can we do better?
Neurospora crassa:Goals • Predict phenotype KO experiments
N. crassa: Resources • Systems biology of Neurospora grant • Extensive literature • very dedicated community • Genome sequence • Ptools pipeline
N. crassa: Solution • Inside-out method with Heather Hood • Outside-in method with MILP algorithm
