cobra.manipulation.delete.prune_unused_metabolites(cobra_model)

Remove metabolites that are not involved in any reactions

Parameters:cobra_model (cobra.Model) – the model to remove unused metabolites from Returns:list of metabolites that were removed Return type:list

cobra.manipulation.delete.prune_unused_reactions(cobra_model)

Remove reactions that have no assigned metabolites

Parameters:cobra_model (cobra.Model) – the model to remove unused reactions from Returns:list of reactions that were removed Return type:list

cobra.manipulation.delete.undelete_model_genes(cobra_model)

Undoes the effects of a call to delete_model_genes in place.

cobra_model: A cobra.Model which will be modified in place

cobra.manipulation.delete.get_compiled_gene_reaction_rules(cobra_model)

Generates a dict of compiled gene_reaction_rules

Any gene_reaction_rule expressions which cannot be compiled or do not evaluate after compiling will be excluded. The result can be used in the find_gene_knockout_reactions function to speed up evaluation of these rules.

cobra.manipulation.delete.find_gene_knockout_reactions(cobra_model, gene_list, compiled_gene_reaction_rules=None)

identify reactions which will be disabled when the genes are knocked out

cobra_model: Model

gene_list: iterable of Gene

compiled_gene_reaction_rules: dict of {reaction_id: compiled_string}

If provided, this gives pre-compiled gene_reaction_rule strings. The compiled rule strings can be evaluated much faster. If a rule is not provided, the regular expression evaluation will be used. Because not all gene_reaction_rule strings can be evaluated, this dict must exclude any rules which can not be used with eval.

cobra.manipulation.delete.delete_model_genes(cobra_model, gene_list, cumulative_deletions=True, disable_orphans=False)

delete_model_genes will set the upper and lower bounds for reactions catalysed by the genes in gene_list if deleting the genes means that the reaction cannot proceed according to cobra_model.reactions[:].gene_reaction_rule

cumulative_deletions: False or True. If True then any previous deletions will be maintained in the model.

class cobra.manipulation.delete._GeneRemover(target_genes)

__init__(target_genes)

visit_Name(node)

visit_BoolOp(node)

cobra.manipulation.delete.remove_genes(cobra_model, gene_list, remove_reactions=True)

remove genes entirely from the model

This will also simplify all gene_reaction_rules with this gene inactivated.
