The metabolic network in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae
was reconstructed using currently available genomic, biochemical, and
physiological information. The metabolic reactions were
compartmentalized between the cytosol and the mitochondria, and
transport steps between the compartments and the environment were
included. A total of 708 structural open reading frames (ORFs) were
accounted for in the reconstructed network, corresponding to 1035
metabolic reactions. Further, 140 reactions were included on the basis
of biochemical evidence resulting in a genome-scale reconstructed
metabolic network containing 1175 metabolic reactions and 584
metabolites. The number of gene functions included in the reconstructed
network corresponds to 16% of all characterized ORFs in S.
cerevisiae. Using the reconstructed network, the metabolic
capabilities of S. cerevisiae were calculated and compared
with Escherichia coli. The reconstructed metabolic network is
the first comprehensive network for a eukaryotic organism, and it may
be used as the basis for in silico analysis of phenotypic functions.
