    SPP1316 - Host-adapted Metabolism of Bacterial Pathogens (2008-2017)

    Host adapted metabolism of bacterial infections: Data integration and refined metabolic modelling

    We developed a joined software platform for modelling metabolism in extracellular and intracellular infections. We established collaborations, software compatibility and exchange throughout the SPP1316, service, data integration and a web platform. The progress achieved is also testified by a number of publications. For the next period we want to join the numerous collaborations and individual results achieved by the bioinformatics platform of SPP1316 in the context of an integrated view on metabolism during infection: Metabolism in host – pathogen interactions is a tight and complicated interaction which can and has to be studied by several and very diverse methods and data sets. We will combine a number of different approaches to achieve here optimal data integration and integrated models. Furthermore, the metabolic modelling achieved in the last period delineates also required new steps: This includes data-driven modelling for  the extra- and intracellular pathogen examples studied as well as tackling the data generation itself with respect to isotopolog modelling, automatic development of metabolic models based on an extended genome annotation, modelling of metabolic fluxes and fit to experimental data. We want to establish new approaches allowing an integrated view and mathematical description of metabolism and its changes during bacterial infections.
