Metabolic modeling is a powerful computational tool to analyze metabolism. It has not only been used to identify metabolic rewiring strategies in cancer but also to predict drug targets and candidate drugs for repurposing. Here, we will elaborate on the reconstruction of context-specific metabolic models of cancer using rFASTCORMICS and the subsequent prediction of drugs for repurposing using our drug prediction workflow.
