Modelisation

1. Hydrogen module's modelisation

 

Questions from the Wetlab part

Questions asked by the dihydrogen module were mainly general questions : how much the deletion of the whole, or of one part, of the genes proposed would increase the amount of dihydrogen produced ? To answer these questions, the metabolic pathway of mixed acid fermentation had to be modelled before we can, eliminating equations for some of the arms of the pathway, observe the advantages in term of dihydrogen production.

 


Schema 1. In red, reaction catalyzed by enzymes whose coding gene could be desactivated in lab. These red arrows are legended by the corresponding gene. It's to note that we didn't include all the genetic regulations in that scheme, for the reason the model was already quite complicated and the addition of thee regulations wouldn't have add important things to it.
