*At the metabolic level, the substrate (S) is utilized to produce biomass (B) and by-products P1 and P2. The cellular objective is to maximize biomass production (B) and the engineering objective is the production of P1. Reaction R2 converts the internal metabolite I1 into product P1 and 0.08 biomass (B), whereas reaction R5 converts the internal metabolite I2 into product P2 and 0.12 Biomass. The stoichiometric coefficients of all other reactions reflect a one-to-one relationship between molecule quantities. | *At the metabolic level, the substrate (S) is utilized to produce biomass (B) and by-products P1 and P2.

The essential genes can be calculated using BRN+FBA method. Also, the software allows the user to load these genes or reactions from a file (if they are available). The list of essential genes can be manually edited, allowing users to add or remove elements, given their knowledge or the purpose of their experiments. |
