Reconstructing the metabolic pathways of S. pyogenes and E. faecalis from their genome sequence

SysMO is a European transnational funding and research initiative on "Systems Biology of Microorganisms".

The goal pursued by SysMO was to record and describe the dynamic molecular processes going on in unicellular microorganisms in a comprehensive way and to present these processes in the form of computerized mathematical models.

Systems biology will raise biomedical and biotechnological research to a new quality level and contribute markedly to progress in understanding. Pooling European research ...

Comparative Systems Biology: Lactic Acid Bacteria

Challenge: Comparative analyses, as demonstrated by comparative genomics and bioinformatics, are extremely powerful for (i) transfer of information from (experimentally) well-studied organisms to the other organisms, and (ii) when coupled to functional and phenotypic information, insight in the relative importance of components to the observed differences and simalities. The central principle of this proposal is that important aspects of the functional differences between organisms derive not ...

Metabolic network of S. pyogenes including primary metabolism, polysaccharide metabolism, purine and pyrimidine biosoynthesis, teichoic acid biosynthesis, fatty acid and phospholipid bioynthesis, amino acid metabolism, vitamins and cofactors

Metabolic network of Enterococcus faecalis including primary metabolism, polysaccharide metabolism, purine and pyrimidine biosoynthesis, teichoic acid biosynthesis, fatty acid and phospholipid bioynthesis, amino acid metabolism, vitamins and cofactors

Preliminary metabolic network of S. pyogenes including primary metabolism, polysaccharide metabolism, purine and pyrimidine biosoynthesis, teichoic acid biosynthesis, fatty acid and phospholipid bioynthesis, amino acid metabolism, vitamins and cofactors. The model still needs to be validated.
