Systematically exploring yeast metabolism through retrobiosynthesis and deep learning

Abstract A systematic understanding of cellular metabolism is essential for engineering yeast and uncovering the principles of metabolic robustness and evolution, yet much of its metabolic space remains unexplored. Although yeast genome-scale metabolic models have been reconstructed and curated for over two decades, more than 90% of the yeast metabolome remains uncovered. Here, to address this gap, we have developed an integrated workflow that combines retrobiosynthesis, deep learning-based...
