cameo mutant fba

Synopsis: Simulate a model after adding mutation(s) using Flux Balance Analysis (FBA), with Cameo.

Usage: python astools.py cameo-mutant-fba [option]

where [option] can be

  • model: Model acceptable by Cameo (see http://cameo.bio/02-import-models.html).
  • mutation: String to define mutation(s). Each mutation is defined as <reaction ID>:<upper bound>:<lower bound>. For example, RBFK,0,0 will represent a knock out. Multiple mutations are delimited using semicolon.
  • result_type: Type of result to give. Allowable types are objective (objective value from FBA) or flux (table of fluxes). Default value = objective.

For example:

python astools.py cameo-mutant-fba \
    --model=iJO1366 \
    --mutation=NNAM,100,0;RBFK,0,0 \
    --result_type=objective

Working example:

D:\Dropbox\MyProjects\astoolkit>python astools.py cameo-mutant-fba --model=iJO1366 --mutation=NNAM,100,0;RBFK,0,0 --result_type=objective
