Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Minnesota, 2003.

All living organisms operate on the basis of a complex, highly branched and highly coupled biochemical network. These networks are capable of a wide variety of diverse chemistries like the fixing of CO<sub>2</sub> to produce organisms as large as trees or the catabolism of simple sugars to produce organisms as small as bacteria. Understanding how the networks are organized and how metabolites navigate the numerous pathways has significant implications on both the basic understanding of biological systems as well as the efficient conversion of substrate into commercially important chemicals like ethanol, hydrogen or antibiotics. The research described in this thesis entails the study of native metabolic networks with the goal of understanding their design principles and defining their capabilities. This is a fundamental step in understanding a system as complex as a biological organism. Predictions related to an <italic>Escherichia coli</italic> network were found to be in remarkable agreement with available published data. Having an improved understanding of the native system provides a more rational basis for introducing new chemistries or modifying the existing reaction network. In this thesis, biochemical networks are also analyzed for their theoretical ability to supply metabolic fluxes to foreign pathways. This information was used to guide the culturing, the analysis, and the genetic modification of recombinant <italic>Escherichia coli</italic> and <italic>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</italic> strains that had been engineered to produce the bioplastic polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA). Predictions related to culturing conditions like the feasibility of anaerobic PHA production and predictions related to culture behavior like the co-production of PHA and ethanol were experimentally verified.Subjects--Topical Terms:
