Assimilating genome-scale metabolic reconstructions with modelBorgifier

Abstract

Motivation: Genome-scale reconstructions and models, as collections of genomic and metabolic information, provide a useful means to compare organisms. Comparison requires that models are similarly notated to pair shared components.Result: Matching and comparison of genome-scale reconstructions and models are facilitated by modelBorgifier. It reconciles models in light of different annotation schemes, allowing diverse models to become useful for synchronous investigation. © 2013 The Author 2013. Published by Oxford University Press.
