该部分内容源于 (Scott and Segrè 2024) 和 https://github.com/gaospecial/learn-fba。
这些材料旨在以简单但具有生物学意义的方式介绍 FBA。它与 Helen Scott 和 Daniel Segrè 的手稿 海洋生态系统中的代谢通量建模 相关 (Scott and Segrè 2024) 。
主要内容包括:
- FBA 基本假设和标准公式的总结。
- 有用的参考文献和在线资源列表。
- 超简化的化学计量模型示例(只有 3 个反应)。
- 简单但具有生物学意义的代谢网络,无法通过直觉解决,需要借助 FBA 求解。
7.1 使用的库
导入基本数值和图形库以及 scipy 优化库。
7.2 1. FBA 基本公式的总结
考虑一个由 \(n\) 个反应和 \(m\) 个代谢物组成的代谢网络。该网络可以用化学计量矩阵 \(\mathbf{S}\) 表示,其元素 \(S_{ij}\) 表示参与反应 \(j\) 的代谢物 \(i\) 的摩尔数。注意,如果代谢物 \(i\) 是产物,则 \(S_{ij}>0\);如果代谢物 \(i\) 是反应物,则 \(S_{ij}<0\)。
给定一个通量向量 \(V = (V_1,V_2,...V_n)\)(其单位为 \(mmol\cdot grDW^{-1} \cdot h^{-1}\)),系统的稳态方程可以写为
\[ \mathbf{S}V=0 \]
上述方程定义了通量之间的线性约束。此外,可以为每个通量设置不等式约束(下限 LB 和上限 UB):
\[ LB_j \leq V_j \leq UB_j \]
在由等式和不等式约束定义的可能状态空间内,可以搜索最大化给定目标函数的状态。目标函数可以通过一组系数定义
\[ c = (c_1,c_2,...,c_n) \]
使得要最大化的目标函数定义为
\[ Z = \sum_{j=1}^{n} c_j V_j = c \cdot V \]
然后 FBA 问题被公式化为:
\[ \begin{align} \max \quad & Z = c \cdot V \\ \text{subject to} \quad & \mathbf{S}V=0 \\ & LB_j \leq V_j \leq UB_j \quad \forall j \end{align} \]
这个优化问题可以使用线性规划 (LP) 解决。

7.4 3. 超简单示例
为了形成对 FBA 数学过程的直观理解,我们将使用一个仅有三个反应的代谢网络的超简单示例。
- \(v_C\): 从环境中导入 1 个碳到细胞中
- \(v_N\): 从环境中导入 1 个氮到细胞中
- \(v_b\)(生物质反应):结合 10 个碳和 1 个氮以生成一个新的生物质单元,并从细胞中移除。
from IPython.display import Image

这个超简化的代谢网络让我们能够以图形方式可视化 FBA 过程,因为只有三个反应,每个反应都将是我们图表上的一个轴。下面显示的交互式图表中,\(v_c\) 对应 x 轴,\(v_n\) 对应 y 轴,\(v_b\) 对应 z 轴。
FBA 的第一个关键假设是细胞处于”稳态”,即细胞中的代谢物(碳和氮)的浓度不会改变。要达到稳态,进入某个代谢物的通量必须等于流出该代谢物的通量。你可以使用质量平衡方程来表示这个要求。在我们的例子中,有两个质量平衡方程,一个是碳的平衡,另一个是氮的平衡。每个方程都表明代谢物的摄取通量等于生物量反应通量乘以该代谢物在生物量反应中的化学计量系数。
这些质量平衡方程可以用平面来图形化表示。平面上的任何位置都代表满足该质量平衡方程的反应通量组合。
要在下面的交互式图表中查看这些平面,请确保通过点击方程左侧的圆圈来打开前两个方程。
为了使整个反应网络处于稳态,必须满足所有质量平衡约束。在这个例子中,所有质量平衡约束在两个平面的交线处得到满足,形成一条直线。这意味着这条线上的任何点都是满足稳态约束的可能通量组合。
可行空间线在下面的方程 3 中以紫色绘制。
为了缩小这个可行空间,我们可以设置反应通量的边界,使得数值被限制在由上限和下限定义的窗口内。对于我们的例子,我们知道碳摄取反应(\(v_c\))必须在 0 到 10 之间。下限 0 表示反应不能反向流动(释放碳)。上限 10 可能表明环境中只有 10 mmol 的碳,或者碳的转运蛋白每单位时间只能输入这么多。我们可以使用这些不等式来缩短我们的可行空间到一个线段,但它仍可能包含许多可能的解。
\(v_c\) 的边界在下面的方程 4 的不等式中显示,该不等式绘制了 \(v_c\) 值有效的矩形空间。
要找到新的较小的可行空间,需要绘制矩形空间与两个稳态平面的交集。在这里你可以想象,切掉可行空间。
为了在这个新的较小可行空间内选择单一解,我们还需要对细胞做第二个假设 - 即细胞的代谢有某种目标。最常见的是,我们假设细胞会最大化其生长,但它也可能最大化高价值代谢物(如 ATP)的产生,或者可能最小化其能量使用。就我们的简单细胞而言,我们可以说细胞的目标是尽可能多地生长,或最大化生物量反应的通量。所以我们必须找到可行空间中 \(v_b\) 值最高的点。在我们受约束的可行空间中,\(v_b\) 的最高通量是 1,这在 \(v_c\) 等于 10 且 \(v_n\) 等于 1 时达到。
