Kinetic model of Escherichia coli's electron transport chain (ETC) coupled to a simplified growth model Version 2
The model describes the electron transport chain (ETC) of Escherichia coli by ordinary differential equations. Also a simplified growth model based on an abstract reducing potential describing the balance of electron donor (glucose) and electron acceptors is coupled to the ETC. The model should reproduce and predict the regulation of the described system for different oxygen availability within the aerobiosis scale (glucose limited continuous culture<=>chemostat). Therefore oxygen is changed slowly over time (linear increase) and the simulated variables can be considered as steady-states for single fixed oxygen concentrations (anaerobic=> microaerobic=> aerobic) in the inflowing gas. Time=20000 corresponds to 100% aerobiosis (end of model validity). Different glucose concentrations Glcin and dilution rates Dil can be simulated by changing the corresponding parameters and the parameter JO2in100 for the maximal oxygen flow.

"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 ...
