- FBA (2-1. Overview of FBA)
- FBA is a method for constructing a metabolic model that linearly expresses metabolic reactions and estimating metabolic flux distribution by linear programming. FBA will be described in more detail below with reference to Figs. 2 and 3.
- FIG 2 is a diagram explaining the "metabolic map” that is the premise of FBA.
- a map (metabolic map) of metabolic reactions that can occur in a cell (C) is shown diagrammatically. Circles (M) indicate each metabolite, and arrows indicate the conversion of the metabolite.
- the metabolic map is created, for example, based on the genomic information of the cell.
- a cell takes in a substrate.
- the cell then converts the taken-up substrate into another metabolite.
- some metabolites are eventually excreted outside the cell.
- some of the metabolites that are excreted outside the cell are often used as the target product.
- Metabolites other than the target product that are excreted outside the cell are sometimes called by-products.
- some of the metabolites are used to construct the next generation of cells.
- FBA is a method for predicting the extent of such metabolic reactions that are actually taking place.
- Figure 3 is a diagram for explaining metabolic flux distribution and FBA. Flux is expressed as the amount of change in metabolites.
- the amount of change v1 from the substrate to the metabolite indicated by the circle M1 is illustrated.
- the first condition for FBA is that the metabolism of all metabolites in the cell is in a steady state. This means that the amount of all metabolites does not change over time. Therefore, in the mass balance equation for metabolite M1 shown in Figure 3(A), the amount of change, v1-v2-v3, is 0. In this way, a mass balance equation with a solution of 0 is created for all metabolites.
- a model that comprehensively includes fluxes in a cell, such as this determinant, is referred to as a metabolic model, stoichiometric model, etc. by those skilled in the art, but in this specification it is referred to as a "metabolic model.”
- a metabolic model based on this first condition is used to uniquely determine the flux distribution that satisfies the second condition that the cell growth rate is maximized ( Figure 3 (B)).
- the unit of flux is expressed as mmol/(h gDCW) using cell mass (gram dry cell weight), unit time (h), and millimolar mass (mmol) of metabolic components. Therefore, to calculate flux from actual measured values, it is necessary to obtain time series data of metabolite concentration (mol/mL) and cell density (gDCW/mL). Analytical devices such as HPLC and MS are used to measure metabolite concentration. Cell density can be measured by measuring the culture solution with a turbidity meter or by extracting and quantifying proteins using RIPA buffer and BCA.
- Non-Patent Document 3 discloses an example of FBA using the actual measured values of four inhibitors added and two metabolites discharged outside the cell.
- the directly measured flux value measured using a Seahorse XF Analyzer and the indirectly measured flux value calculated from the measured value were given as constraints on the flux in the metabolic model, and FBA was performed.
- the estimated values of GABA (Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid), ABAT (4-Aminobutyrate Aminotransferase), glucose, glutamic acid, and palmitate matched the actual measured values.
- GABA Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid
- ABAT 4-Aminobutyrate Aminotransferase
- glucose glutamic acid
- palmitate matched the actual measured values.
- the solution space of flux in the metabolic model is huge, and FBA extracts only one solution from it, so it is possible that the flux of substances other than the above five types of substances evaluated may not be correctly estimated.
- Non-Patent Documents 4 and 5 disclose a method for estimating flux distribution in intracellular metabolic pathways by 13C metabolic flux analysis using GC-MS. 13C is carbon-13, a stable isotope of naturally occurring carbon-12 (12C).
- cells are cultured in a medium containing 13C glucose, a carbon source labeled with the stable carbon isotope 13C, and the flux distribution can be estimated by measuring the 13C-labeled ratio in metabolites based on 13C glucose taken up by the cells.
- the 13C metabolic flux analysis method has the problem that 13C glucose is expensive.
- glycerol, carbon dioxide, etc. cannot be labeled with 13C, so it cannot be applied to hosts that use these substances as carbon sources.
- flux analysis methods that use stable isotopes including 13C metabolic flux analysis, have the problem that even slight differences in the experimental system require tuning of the experimental conditions, which poses high technical hurdles. Specifically, flux analysis methods that use stable isotopes require the experimental system to be stopped in a desired state, which is technically very difficult.
- the method for estimating a flux pattern according to this embodiment includes the following four processes, namely, first to fourth processes.
- FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining a method for estimating a flux pattern according to the embodiment.
- a feature of the first process of the flux pattern estimation method according to the present embodiment is to obtain time series data of many types of extracellular metabolites, preferably time series data of extracellular metabolome data, because in order to estimate a flux pattern that is highly consistent with metabolic reactions actually occurring in cells, it is preferable to measure as many types of extracellular metabolites as possible, and ideally, it is preferable to comprehensively measure all types of measurable extracellular metabolites.
- time series data on cells and extracellular metabolites is obtained. From the perspective of material balance, both the cells and extracellular metabolites produced by cell proliferation are a form of substance that is excreted outside the underlying cells. Therefore, in this specification, cells and extracellular metabolites are collectively referred to as "excreted products,” and the time series data on cell mass and the time series data on extracellular metabolite mass are collectively referred to as "excretion data.”
- the proliferation flux which is the flux of the cell proliferation rate
- the extracellular flux which is the change in the proliferation flux
- proliferation flux and extracellular flux are collectively referred to as “excretion flux.”
- extracellular flux the flux of metabolic reactions within the cell is referred to as “intracellular flux.”
- the many types of extracellular metabolites preferably include amino acids, vitamins, organic acids, metabolites involved in amino acid metabolism (organic acids, etc.), metabolites involved in nucleic acid metabolism, metabolites involved in the TCA cycle (Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle), etc. More preferably, the many types of extracellular metabolites are metabolites that constitute the totality of extracellular metabolites. The totality of extracellular metabolites is called the “extracellular metabolome,” and the measured values are called “extracellular metabolome data.”
- Many types of extracellular metabolites include, for example, dozens or more types of substances, and preferably, one hundred or more types of substances.
- an optimization problem and flux variability analysis are used to estimate multiple flux patterns based on the measured values.
- the specific calculation method will be described later.
- the flux patterns estimated in this way by the optimization problem and FVA are also referred to as "primary flux patterns" in this specification.
- post-processing clustering and ranking
- a most plausible flux pattern is one that is considered to have a high probability of occurring in real cells.
- the estimated primary flux patterns are clustered into groups of similar primary flux patterns.
- a representative flux pattern is generated from the primary flux patterns in each cluster.
- the representative flux patterns are ranked in order of plausibility.
- plausibility is the order in which they are thought to be most likely to occur in real cells. The method for ranking the representative flux patterns will be described later.
- the flux pattern estimation method solves an optimization problem based on the measured values of the cell proliferation rate and the measured values of many types of extracellular metabolites. Therefore, compared to FBA, which has the theoretical maximum cell proliferation rate as a constraint, it is possible to obtain a flux pattern that is consistent with the actual measured values. Furthermore, compared to FBA, which incorporates only the measured values of a small number (e.g., five types) of extracellular metabolites, it is possible to narrow down the flux space further. Furthermore, in the second process, instead of being limited to one flux pattern as in FBA, it is possible to estimate multiple plausible flux patterns. Therefore, it is considered that the solution is more likely to include a flux pattern that reflects the metabolic reaction in an actual cell than conventional metabolic flux analysis.
- the most representative patterns can be ranked and checked from among multiple flux patterns, which does not place an excessive burden on the user.
- the flux pattern estimation method according to this embodiment makes it easy to estimate the metabolic pathway that is the cause of the change in productivity.
- the flux pattern estimation method according to this embodiment is shown in FIG. 5.
- FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing a flux pattern estimation process according to an embodiment. The steps shown in Fig. 5 are executed by the processor 10 of the analysis device 1.
- S is used as an abbreviation for "STEP.”
- S11 to S12 in Fig. 5 correspond to the first process in Fig. 4.
- S21 in Fig. 5 corresponds to the second process in Fig. 4.
- S31 in Fig. 5 corresponds to the third process in Fig. 4.
- S41 in Fig. 5 corresponds to the fourth process in Fig. 4.
- the processor 10 acquires excretion data including time series change data of substances excreted outside the cells for each of the first cell line and the second cell line.
- the second cell line has a different production amount of a specific metabolite from the first cell line.
- the first cell line and the second cell line are cells that belong to two different strains of the same lineage.
- the first cell line and the second cell line may be prokaryotic or eukaryotic.
- the first cell line and the second cell line are preferably cells derived from organisms such as Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, green algae, nematodes, Arabidopsis thaliana, and humans, for which a metabolic map based on the genome has been constructed.
- Such metabolic maps based on the genome are also referred to as "genome-scale metabolic models" by those skilled in the art.
- cells derived from organisms for which no existing metabolic map exists can be subject to the metabolic flux pattern estimation method according to this embodiment by constructing a metabolic map.
- Specific metabolites are typically metabolites that are excreted outside the cells, and in this case, the "production amount of specific metabolites” corresponds to the "amount of specific metabolites excreted outside the cells.”
- Specific metabolites are typically targets that are specific useful metabolites.
- the excretion data includes cell data, which is time series data on the amount of cells, and extracellular metabolite data, which is time series data on the amount of extracellular metabolites, which are metabolites excreted outside the cells.
- the cell data is time series data on cell density (gDCW/mL)
- the extracellular metabolite data is time series data on extracellular metabolite concentration (mol/mL).
- time series data on the amount of the target substance is obtained from measurements by GC and/or MS.
- time series data on the amount of by-products e.g., amino acids, vitamins, organic acids, metabolites involved in amino acid metabolism (organic acids, etc.), metabolites involved in nucleic acid metabolism, metabolites involved in the TCA cycle
- amino acids, vitamins, organic acids, metabolites involved in amino acid metabolism (organic acids, etc.), metabolites involved in nucleic acid metabolism, metabolites involved in the TCA cycle is obtained from measurements by an LC-MS cell culture profiling method (manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation).
- the processor 10 calculates the excretion flux of the substance outside the cell based on the excretion data.
- the processor 10 calculates the extracellular metabolite flux, which is the amount of change in the extracellular metabolite per cell per time, from the extracellular metabolite data. Also, the processor 10 calculates the proliferation flux, which is the amount of change in the extracellular metabolite per cell per time, from the cell data.
- the excretion flux includes the extracellular metabolite flux and the proliferation flux.
- FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining a method for calculating the growth flux.
- FIG. 6 is a graph showing the time series change in cell mass, with the horizontal axis showing the culture time and the vertical axis showing the number of bacteria (log scale).
- the growth flux is the value obtained by dividing the number of bacteria grown in a specified period by the product of the number of bacteria in that specified period and at the start of the specified period.
- the processor 10 estimates a number of primary flux patterns based on the discharge flux. The process of estimating the primary flux patterns is described in detail in FIG. 7.
- the processor 10 estimates a representative representative flux pattern by clustering the multiple primary flux patterns using information regarding the mutual similarity of the multiple primary flux patterns.
- similarity the degree of similarity between flux patterns or fluxes.
- the processor 10 clusters a plurality of primary flux patterns based on the mutual similarity of the excretion fluxes.
- the intracellular fluxes may differ depending on the degree of freedom of the intracellular fluxes.
- the difference in intracellular flux has no effect on the excretion flux and is therefore not important as a factor in the change in productivity of the target product, so it is considered that there is no need to incorporate it into the clustering. This reduces the possibility that factors that are not important as a factor in the change in productivity of the target product will affect the clustering.
- the processor 10 performs clustering using hierarchical clustering. For example, the processor 10 calculates the Euclidean distance between two first-order fluxes, and repeats clustering the combinations with the shortest distance (highest similarity) to create a tree diagram, thereby performing hierarchical clustering. The distance is calculated, for example, using the Ward method (minimum variance method).
- the processor 10 estimates a representative flux pattern based on the primary flux patterns contained in each cluster.
- the representative flux pattern may be created by selecting one flux pattern from the primary flux patterns in the cluster, or by integrating at least a portion of the primary flux patterns in the cluster.
- the processor 10 ranks the representative flux patterns.
- the rank is a rank that is considered to be plausible, more specifically, a rank that is considered to be highly likely to be similar to a flux pattern that is actually performed in a cell.
- the representative flux pattern ranked first is the most plausible flux pattern.
- the ranking can be said to be the user's order of priority when considering representative flux patterns. For example, it is considered most efficient for the user to conduct verification experiments with the representative flux pattern ranked first.
- the processor 10 ranks the representative flux patterns based on the consistency between the measured values of the excretion flux and the estimated values by FBA.
- the processor 10 ranks the representative flux patterns based on the error between the measured values of the proliferation flux and the estimated values by FBA, and the error between the measured values of the extracellular metabolite flux and the estimated values by FBA.
- the error is, for example, the root mean squared percentage error (RMSPE) calculated by the following formula:
- the processor 10 detects differences by comparing a representative flux pattern of the first cell line with a representative flux pattern of the second cell line.
- the processor 10 first detects similar flux pattern pairs between the first cell line and the second cell line by comparing a representative flux pattern of the first cell line with a representative flux pattern of the second cell line.
- the processor 10 detects differential fluxes that differ between the flux pattern pairs by comparing the flux pattern pairs.
- the differential fluxes are fluxes that are estimated to be the cause of changes in the production amount of the target product in the second cell line. As described above, the user can estimate the flux that is the cause of changes in the production amount of the target product in the second cell line.
- the processor 10 clusters and outputs the multiple primary flux patterns, and ends the process.
- the processor 10 may output at least one of the representative flux pattern, the ranked representative flux pattern, the flux pattern pair, and the difference flux.
- the processor 10 outputs these estimation results by displaying them on the display 15.
- the output form of the estimation results is not limited to this, and the estimation results may be sent to an external device of the analysis system 100 via the communication unit 12, for example, and output by the external device.
- the external device is, for example, a printer or a computer equipped with a display. This allows the user to easily understand the estimation results. Furthermore, the user can plan a verification experiment for the estimation results based on the estimation results.
- FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the process of estimating the primary flux pattern.
- FIG. 7 corresponds to the subroutine of S21 in FIG. 5, and is executed after S12 and before S51 in FIG. 5.
- the steps shown in FIG. 7 are executed by the processor 10 of the analysis device 1 .
- the processor 10 solves an optimization problem in which the intracellular flux is used as an explanatory variable, and the error between the measured value and the estimated value of the cell proliferation rate and the error between the measured value and the estimated value of the discharge amount of a specific metabolite are used as objective functions.
- the flux pattern estimated in this manner is referred to as an "optimized flux pattern" in this specification.
- the optimized flux pattern is a flux pattern optimized to explain the cell proliferation rate and the measured value of a specific metabolite.
- the first condition is the same as the first condition of FBA, and is that the mass balance equation must be zero for all metabolites within the cell.
- the second condition is different from the second condition of FBA, and is to find multiple flux patterns that minimize the error between the estimated and experimental values of extracellular metabolites.
- the processor 10 calculates, as the optimized flux pattern, a flux pattern that minimizes the sum of the squared error between the measured and estimated values of the cell proliferation rate and the squared error between the measured and estimated values of the excretion amount of a specific metabolite.
- the measured value of the cell proliferation rate is, for example, a proliferation flux calculated based on measured proliferation data.
- the estimated value of the cell proliferation rate is a proliferation flux in a flux pattern that is a candidate for the optimized flux pattern.
- the measured value of the excretion amount of a specific metabolite is, for example, an extracellular flux of a specific metabolite calculated based on measured extracellular metabolite data.
- the estimated value of the excretion amount of a specific metabolite is, for example, an extracellular flux of a specific metabolite in a flux pattern that is a candidate for the optimized flux pattern.
- the processor 10 performs FVA for each intracellular flux for the optimized flux pattern while maintaining the explanatory variables, cell growth rate, and excretion amount of specific metabolites, and obtains the minimum and maximum values.
- FVA is an analytical method that calculates the theoretical maximum yield and theoretical minimum yield under constraint conditions to determine the range of flux variation.
- the objective function is the extracellular flux of a specific metabolite. More specifically, the minimum and maximum values of each intracellular flux are determined under the condition that they match the value of the extracellular flux of a specific metabolite calculated from the measured value. Note that this alone does not take into account cell proliferation ability, so when calculating the theoretical maximum yield while maintaining a certain level of cell proliferation ability, a constraint is also added that the cell proliferation rate must be within a specified percentage of the theoretical maximum value.
- the cell proliferation rate is not fixed uniquely to a maximum value, but is assumed to be within a certain percentage of the maximum value. This is because in actual living organisms, metabolic reactions that satisfy the theoretical maximum cell proliferation rate are not necessarily taking place. For example, if flux pattern A is the one that maximizes the theoretical cell proliferation rate, and flux pattern B is the one that maximizes the theoretical cell proliferation rate slightly lower than the maximum value, it is entirely possible that flux pattern B is taking place within the cell.
- FVA can estimate multiple plausible flux patterns (primary flux patterns) with each flux having a certain degree of freedom. This is thought to improve the possibility of estimating flux patterns that correspond to the metabolic reactions taking place in actual cells, compared to simply solving FBA.
- the processor 10 further estimates a primary flux pattern using FBA for each of the cases where the flux is set to the minimum value and the maximum value.
- a specific intracellular flux is fixed to a minimum value
- the values of the other fluxes are calculated based on the measured values.
- the minimum value of this specific intracellular flux and the corresponding values of the other fluxes form a single primary flux pattern.
- the processor 10 uniquely fixes the value of a flux whose difference between its minimum and maximum values is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold value. This prevents unnecessary increase in the variations of primary flux patterns that are almost the same.
- the processor 10 advances the process to S31 in FIG.
- the effect of the flux pattern estimation method according to this embodiment will be described below along the processes shown in Figures 6 and 7.
- the proliferation flux and the extracellular flux can be calculated from the measured values. This makes it possible to estimate a flux pattern that matches the measured values.
- extracellular metabolome data that comprehensively measures extracellular metabolites, it is possible to estimate a flux pattern that is more realistic.
- an optimized flux pattern that minimizes the error between the cell proliferation rate of the second cell line and the extracellular flux of the target substance can be easily estimated based on the measured values.
- the optimized flux pattern found in S211 can be said to be just one example.
- FVA the allowable range for each intracellular flux. This makes it possible to estimate various flux patterns (primary flux patterns) with the same explanatory variables, cell proliferation rate, and target substance excretion flux, but different intracellular fluxes, in S213.
- the degree of agreement between the measured values and estimated values for cell proliferation rate and extracellular flux among the representative flux patterns is calculated. Then, by ranking the representative flux patterns based on the degree of agreement, the user can easily determine which representative flux pattern is most plausible (highly likely to be true).
- the user can know the cause of the change in the production amount of the target product. Note that if the flux pattern of the first cell line has already been estimated, the user can estimate only the representative flux pattern of the second cell line in S11 to S41, and compare it with the existing flux pattern of the first cell line in S51.
- the user can maintain the change in production volume by taking measures to keep the factor stable. Furthermore, when culturing the same cell line next time onwards, the desirable production volume can be reproduced by reproducing the factor. This allows a desirable culture system to be established.
- the flux pattern estimation method makes it possible to control the culture system, thereby improving its stability and expandability.
- the target substance is a metabolite discharged from the cell, but the present embodiment can also be applied to the case where the target substance is a metabolite accumulated in the cell and collected by disrupting the cell.
- the metabolite accumulated in the cell is, for example, a metabolite that constitutes an intracellular organelle or a cytoskeleton.
- a part of the cell culture solution is fractionated at a predetermined time (for example, at a predetermined time interval), and the target substance is measured by disrupting the cells from the part of the culture solution, thereby measuring the amount of the target substance.
- the extracellular flux may be measured using a part of the culture solution in which the target substance was measured, or may be measured using another part of the culture solution.
- the cell proliferation rate may be measured using a part of the culture solution in which the target substance and/or the extracellular flux was measured, or may be measured in the original culture solution, for example, by turbidity. In this way, it is possible to measure the amount of the target substance, the cell proliferation rate, and the extracellular flux. Therefore, the method for estimating a flux pattern according to this embodiment can determine the metabolic pathway that causes a change in the production amount of the metabolite accumulated in the cell.
- the metabolic pathway that causes a change in the amount of target substance excreted outside the cell and/or the amount accumulated inside the cell can be determined by measuring the amount excreted outside the cell and the amount accumulated inside the cell separately.
- the flux pattern estimation method can also be applied to determining the flux pattern and the flux that causes the change in a system in which at least a portion of the target substance accumulates intracellularly.
- the subject of the flux pattern estimation method according to this embodiment does not have to be a second cell line that has a different production amount of a specific metabolite from the first cell line, but may be any cell line. Therefore, the flux pattern estimation method according to this embodiment can also be applied to estimating the flux pattern of a specific cell line.
