The output of the initial model of redox metabolism will be compared to experimental flux and metabolite data. Deviations between model and experiment will be prioritized together with WP2. We will apply Metabolic Control Analysis (Fell 1992 PMID: 1530563) to diagnose which enzymes control the deviating metabolite concentrations and/or rates. When the agreement between model and experiment is sufficient we will first link it to the existing model of trypanosome glycolysis and repeat the same quality control procedure. Further extensions of the network will be prioritized based experimental data analyses coming from WP1

The SilicoTryp project aims at the creation of a “Silicon Trypanosome”, a comprehensive, experiment-based, multi-scale mathematical model of trypanosome physiology. Trypanosomes are blood-stream parasites transmitted by tsetse flies; they cause African sleeping sickness in humans and livestock. Currently available drugs have severe side effects, and the parasites are rapidly developing resistance. In this project, we collect a wide range of new experimental data on the parasite in its various ...

Aim. Constructing a predictive, dynamic model of the redox metabolism of trypanosomes. Aided by this model we will quantify the impact of gene-expression and metabolic regulation on redox metabolism. The model will be constructed in an iterative cycle of experimentation – modelling – analysis – experimentation, such that it can be extended and refined based on new experimental insights.
