A Mathematical Model of Metabolism and Regulation Provides a Systems-Level View of the Oxygen Response of Escherichia coli Version 5
The model describes the catabolism of Escherichia coli and its regulation. The metabolic reactions are modeled by the thermokinetic model formalism. The model is simplified by assuming rapid equilibrium of many reactions. Regulation is modeled by phenomenological laws describing the activation or repression of enzymes and genes in dependence of metabolic signals. The model is intended to describe the behavior of E. coli in a chemostat culture in depedence on the oxygen supply.
The model is described in Ederer M, Steinsiek S, Stagge S, Rolfe M, Ter Beek A, Knies D, de Mattos JT, Sauter T, Green J, Poole R, Bettenbrock K and Sawodny O (2014) A mathematical model of metabolism and regulation provides a systems-level view of how Escherichia coli responds to oxygen. Front. Microbiol. 5:124. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2014.00124

"Systems Understanding of Microbial Oxygen responses" (SUMO) investigates how Escherichia coli senses oxygen, or the associated changes in oxidation/reduction balance, via the Fnr and ArcA proteins, how these systems interact with other regulatory systems, and how the redox response of an E. coli population is generated from the responses of single cells. There are five sub-projects to determine system properties and behaviour and three sub-projects to employ different and complementary modelling ...

Changing the oxygen availability leads to an adaptation of Escherichia coli at different biological levels. After pertubation of oxygen in chemostat experiments the microorganism(s) will come back to another steady state. This investigation deals with these stationary responses of Escherichia coli within the aerobiosis scale. The change for different biological variables, in different areas of the organism like the electron transport chain, the TCA cycle or globally is investigated by wildtype ...
