Iterative design of training data to control intricate enzymatic reaction networks

Abstract Kinetic modeling of in vitro enzymatic reaction networks is vital to understand and control the complex behaviors emerging from the nonlinear interactions inside. However, modeling is severely hampered by the lack of training data. Here, we introduce a methodology that combines an active le...

description Abstract Kinetic modeling of in vitro enzymatic reaction networks is vital to understand and control the complex behaviors emerging from the nonlinear interactions inside. However, modeling is severely hampered by the lack of training data. Here, we introduce a methodology that combines an active learning-like approach and flow chemistry to efficiently create optimized datasets for a highly interconnected enzymatic reactions network with multiple sub-pathways. The optimal experimental design (OED) algorithm designs a sequence of out-of-equilibrium perturbations to maximize the information about the reaction kinetics, yielding a descriptive model that allows control of the output of the network towards any cost function. We experimentally validate the model by forcing the network to produce different product ratios while maintaining a minimum level of overall conversion efficiency. Our workflow scales with the complexity of the system and enables the optimization of previously unobtainable network outputs.
