Multi-objective Optimisation, Sensitivity and Robustness Analysis in FBA Modelling
[chapter]
2012
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We introduce a multi-objective optimisation algorithm, called Genetic Design through Multi-Objective (GDMO), and test it in several organisms to maximise the production of key intermediate metabolites ...
Finally, we perform the Sensitivity Analysis of the metabolic model, which finds the inputs with the highest influence on the outputs of the model. ...

Evolutionary Systems Biology of Amino Acid Biosynthetic Cost in Yeast
2010
PLoS ONE
In the economy of the yeast cell, we find that the cost of amino acid synthesis plays a limited role in shaping transcript and protein expression levels compared to that of translational optimisation. ...
In order to optimise growth and reproduction, natural selection is expected, where possible, to favour the use of proteins whose constituents are cheaper to produce, as reduced biosynthetic cost may confer ...
