Recursive exploration of metabolic yield space (opens in new tab)

Genome-scale metabolic network reconstructions contain extremely detailed and valuable information regarding cellular metabolism. For many applications such as finding genetic engineering targets and reduced kinetic model construction, metabolic network analysis techniques exist. Yield spaces based on the extreme rays of solution cones related to the metabolic network are frequently constructed for these types of analyses. However, for genome-scale networks, full enumeration of these extreme ...
