Design and selection of efficient metabolic pathways is critical for the success of metabolic engineering endeavors. Convenient pathways should not only produce the target metabolite in high yields but also are required to be thermodynamically feasible under production conditions, and to prefer efficient enzymes. To support the design and selection of such pathways, different computational approaches have been proposed for exploring the feasible pathway space under many of the above constraints. In this review, an overview of recent constraint‐based optimization frameworks for metabolic pathway prediction, as well as relevant pathway engineering case studies that highlight the importance of rational metabolic designs is presented. Despite the availability and suitability of in silico design tools for metabolic pathway engineering, scarce—although increasing—application of computational outcomes is found. Finally, challenges and limitations hindering the broad adoption and successful application of these tools in metabolic engineering projects are discussed. 相似文献

Constant progress in genetic engineering has given rise to a number of promising areas of research that facilitated the expansion of industrial biotechnology. The field of metabolic engineering, which utilizes genetic tools to manipulate microbial metabolism to enhance the production of compounds of interest, has had a particularly strong impact by providing new platforms for chemical production. Recent developments in synthetic biology promise to expand the metabolic engineering toolbox further by creating novel biological components for pathway design. The present review addresses some of the recent advances in synthetic biology and how these have the potential to affect metabolic engineering in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. While S. cerevisiae for years has been a robust industrial organism and the target of multiple metabolic engineering trials, its potential for synthetic biology has remained relatively unexplored and further research in this field could strongly contribute to industrial biotechnology. This review also addresses are general considerations for pathway design, ranging from individual components to regulatory systems, overall pathway considerations and whole-organism engineering, with an emphasis on potential contributions of synthetic biology to these areas. Some examples of applications for yeast synthetic biology and metabolic engineering are also discussed. 相似文献

One-carbon feedstock such as methanol and formate has attracted much attention as carbon substrate of industrial biotechnology for production of value-added chemicals and biofuels. Productivity improvement of natural one-carbon metabolic pathways in native hosts such as methanotrophs is somewhat difficult due to inefficient genetic tools and low specific growth rate. As an alternative, metabolic engineering can create new and efficient metabolic pathways of one-carbon substrate that can be readily transferred to non-native hosts. In this paper, recent progresses in protein and metabolic engineering for creation of methanol and formate-utilizing synthetic pathways based on RuMP cycle and formolase are reviewed. Perspectives on one-carbon metabolic pathway engineering in non-native host are also discussed. 相似文献

Metabolic engineering is the directed improvement of cellular properties through the modification of specific biochemical reactions or the introduction of new ones, with the use of recombinant DNA technology. As such, metabolic engineering emphasizes metabolic pathway integration and relies on metabolic fluxes as determinants of cell physiology and measures of metabolic control. The combination of analytical methods to quantify fluxes and their control with molecular biological techniques to implement genetic modifications is the essence of metabolic engineering. Strategies for metabolic flux determination are reviewed in this paper and it is shown how metabolic fluxes can be used in the systematic elucidation of metabolic control in the framework of reaction grouping and top-down metabolic control analysis. 相似文献

Isoflavonoids are a diverse group of secondary metabolites derived from the phenylpropanoid pathway. These compounds are distributed
predominantly in leguminous plants and play important roles in plant–environment interactions and human health. Consequently,
the biosynthetic pathway of isoflavonoid compounds has been widely elucidated in the past decades. Up to now, most of the
structural genes and some of the regulatory genes involved in this pathway have been isolated and well characterized. Nowadays,
the protective effects of the legume isoflavonoids against hormone dependent cancers, cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis,
and menopausal symptoms have generated considerable interest within the genetic and metabolic engineering fields to enhance
the dietary intake of these compounds for disease prevention. Subsequently, there are some great progresses in genetic and
metabolic engineering to improve their yields in leguminous and non-leguminous plants and/or microorganisms. Because of the
field of flavonoid biosynthesis has been reviewed fairly extensively in the past, this review concentrates on the more recent
development in the isoflavonoid branch of phenylpropanoid pathway, including gene isolation and characterization. In addition,
we describe the state-of-the-art research with respect to genetic and metabolic engineering of isoflavonoid biosynthesis. 相似文献

Modeling and simulation: tools for metabolic engineering. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Wolfgang Wiechert 《Journal of biotechnology》2002,94(1):37-63
Mathematical modeling is one of the key methodologies of metabolic engineering. Based on a given metabolic model different computational tools for the simulation, data evaluation, systems analysis, prediction, design and optimization of metabolic systems have been developed. The currently used metabolic modeling approaches can be subdivided into structural models, stoichiometric models, carbon flux models, stationary and nonstationary mechanistic models and models with gene regulation. However, the power of a model strongly depends on its basic modeling assumptions, the simplifications made and the data sources used. Model validation turns out to be particularly difficult for metabolic systems. The different modeling approaches are critically reviewed with respect to their potential and benefits for the metabolic engineering cycle. Several tools that have emerged from the different modeling approaches including structural pathway synthesis, stoichiometric pathway analysis, metabolic flux analysis, metabolic control analysis, optimization of regulatory architectures and the evaluation of rapid sampling experiments are discussed. 相似文献

Metabolic engineering is a critical biotechnological approach in addressing global energy and environment challenges. Most engineering efforts, however, consist of laborious and inefficient trial-and-error of target pathways, due in part to the lack of methodologies that can comprehensively assess pathway properties in thermodynamics and kinetics. Metabolic engineering can benefit from computational tools that evaluate feasibility, expense and stability of non-natural metabolic pathways. Such tools can also help us understand natural pathways and their regulation at systems level. Here we introduce a computational toolbox, PathParser, which, for the first time, integrates multiple important functions for pathway analysis including thermodynamics analysis, kinetics-based protein cost optimization and robustness analysis. Specifically, PathParser enables optimization of the driving force of a pathway by minimizing the Gibbs free energy of least thermodynamically favorable reaction. In addition, based on reaction thermodynamics and enzyme kinetics, it can compute the minimal enzyme protein cost that supports metabolic flux, and evaluate pathway stability and flux in response to enzyme concentration perturbations. In a demo analysis of the Calvin–Benson–Bassham cycle and photorespiration pathway in the model cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC 6803, the computation results are corroborated by experimental proteomics data as well as metabolic engineering outcomes. This toolbox may have broad application in metabolic engineering and systems biology in other microbial systems. 相似文献

Although the cytosolic isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway, mavolonate pathway, in plants has been known for many years, a new plastidial 1-deoxyxylulose-5-phosphate (DXP) pathway was identified in the past few years and its related intermediates, enzymes, and genes have been characterized quite recently.With a deep insight into the biosynthetic pathway of isoprenoids, investigations into the metabolic engineering of isoprenoid biosynthesis have started to prosper. In the present article, recent advances in the discoveries and regulatory roles of new genes and enzymes in the plastidial isoprenoid biosynthesis path way are reviewed and examples of the metabolic engineering of cytosolic and plastidial isoprenoids biosnthesis are discussed. 相似文献
