COBRApy
COBRApy is a Python package for metabolic modeling. It provides tools for constructing, simulating, and analyzing metabolic networks. Metabolic models are mathematical representations of biochemical reaction networks within cells. COBRApy allows researchers to study cellular metabolism, predict the effects of genetic or environmental changes, and design metabolic engineering strategies.
The core functionality of COBRApy includes reading and writing metabolic models in various standard formats, such
COBRApy also offers advanced analysis capabilities. These include identifying essential genes or reactions, performing sensitivity analysis
