- As a team who relied mostly on technology, we have a unique list of resources that we either used or investigated. The resources that we looked at can be divided into three categories: Software, Journal Articles, and Books
Software
This category includes all programs, libraries, modules, websites, and anything else involving computer technology.
Programming Language
For our web-based program, we used Python 2.5/2.6 programming language in conjunction with the web framework, Django 1.0.2, and MySQL, a relational database management system (RDBMS).
Modules/Libraries
- Biopython
- Networkx
- SciPy
- SoapPy (for KEGG API access)
- Pythongraph
- Pygraphviz (to work with graphviz)
- Pyexcelerator
- Pyopengl
- Matplotlib
Constraint Based Modeling
Becker, Scott; et al.Quantitative prediction of cellular metabolism with constraint-based models: the COBRA Toolbox.Department of Bioengineering, University of California San Diego.Nature Protocols Vol.2 No.3. March 2007.
- Briefly describes constraint based modeling and give the principles behind it
- Describes the functions of the COBRA toolbox and it explains the output of the program
Price, Nathan; et al. Genome-Scale Models of Microbial Cells: Evaluating the Consequences of Constraints.Department of Bioengineering, University of California San Diego. Nature Reviews. Vol.2. November 2004.
- Describes the constraints one must take into account when creating genome scale models
- Explains each constraint in detail
