ReacKnock: identifying reaction deletion strategies for microbial strain optimization based on genome-scale metabolic network.

Gene knockout has been used as a common strategy to improve microbial strains for producing chemicals. Several algorithms are available to predict the target reactions to be deleted. Most of them apply mixed integer bi-level linear programming (MIBLP) based on metabolic networks, and use duality the...
