Abstract
Microbes have been extensively utilized for their sustainable and scalable properties in synthesizing desired bio-products. However, insufficient knowledge about intracellular metabolism has impeded further microbial applications. The genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) play a pivotal role in facilitating a global understanding of cellular metabolic mechanisms. These models enable rational modification by exploring metabolic pathways and predicting potential targets in microorganisms, enabling precise cell regulation without experimental costs. Nonetheless, simplified GEM only considers genome information and network stoichiometry while neglecting other important bio-information, such as enzyme functions, thermodynamic properties, and kinetic parameters. Consequently, uncertainties persist particularly when predicting microbial behaviors in complex and fluctuant systems. The advent of the omics era with its massive quantification of genes, proteins, and metabolites under various conditions has led to the flourishing of multi-constrained models and updated algorithms with improved predicting power and broadened dimension. Meanwhile, machine learning (ML) has demonstrated exceptional analytical and predictive capacities when applied to training sets of biological big data. Incorporating the discriminant strength of ML with GEM facilitates mechanistic modeling efficiency and improves predictive accuracy. This paper provides an overview of research innovations in the GEM, including multi-constrained modeling, analytical approaches, and the latest applications of ML, which may contribute comprehensive knowledge toward genetic refinement, strain development, and yield enhancement for a broad range of biomolecules.
