Running the Model

The model was run using MATLAB’s ODE45.

The modelling for both the pathays had initial conditions of:

table

and using the constants above the flux, J, took the value:

The Non-monooxygenase Pathway

ODE overview:

Raw MATLAB code:


function dy = nop450(t,y)
 
dy=zeros(7,1);
 
dy(1)= -y(7)*(6*10^(-12))*0.0463067*(y(1)-y(2));
dy(2)= ((6*10^(-12))*0.0463067*(y(1)-y(2)))-3.3*25.55*(y(2)/(0.53+y(2)));
dy(3)= 3.3*25.55*(y(2)/(0.53+y(2)))-0.0871*25.55*(y(3)/(0.94+y(3)));
dy(4)= .0871*25.55*(y(3)/(0.94+y(3)))- 0.6*25.55*(y(4)/(0.16+y(4)));
dy(5)= 0.6*25.55*(y(4)/(0.16+y(4))) - 25.4*25.55*(y(5)/(20+y(5)));
 
   if y(6) >  2*10^(-10)
      dy(6)= 25.4*25.55*(y(5)/(20+y(5))) -1.5789*10^(-10)
   else
       dy(6) = 25.4*25.55*(y(5)/(20+y(5)))
   end
   
   if y(6) > 0.0005 
        if y(7) > 1.6E11
            dy(7)=0
        else
            dy(7) = 5*10^6
        end
   else
        dy(7) = 0
   end
 
end

MATLAB output:

The rate at which DCA is removed in solution:

Graph 1: The blue line represents how the concentration of DCA in solution decreases due to the action of our DCA degraders. The red line represents the intracellular concentions of the metabolites (disregard in this graph). One can see that an initial concentration of 2E8 cells/mL completely removes the DCA with a concentration 1mM in (roughly) 150mins.

The Rate at which the intracellular concentration of the metabolites change over time:

Graph 2: Each line represents the concentration of each of the metabolites . This graph is simply a rescaling of graph 1. Note: the glycolate won’t accumulate in the cell – it is metabolised – the model had glycolate as the final product. It is used to show that the presence of glycolate can attribute to cell growth.

Rescaling the graph once again: the rate at which the metabolic intermediate change over time.

Graph 3: Each line represents the concentration of each of the metabolites . This graph is simply a rescaling of graph 1 and 2.

The rate at which the cells grow over time:

Graph 4: the blue line represents the linear increase of cells due to the presence of intracellular glycolate.

Raw MATLAB code for the pathway not involving p450


function dy = p450(t,y)
 
dy=zeros(5,1);

dy(1)= -6*(10^12)*0.0463067*(y(1)-y(2));
dy(2)= 6*(10^12)*0.0463067*(y(1)-y(2))-89.8*0.1*(y(2)/(7.2+y(2)));
dy(3)= 89.8*0.1*(y(2)/(7.2+y(2)))-0.6*0.1*(y(3)/(0.16+y(3)));
dy(4)= 0.6*0.1*(y(3)/(0.16+y(3))) - 25.4*0.1*(y(4)/(20+y(4)));
dy(5)= 25.4*0.1*(y(4)/(20+y(4)));

end

Raw MATLAB code for the pathway involving p450

Output:

The output of the raw MATLAB code for the pathway not involving p450 which depict how the concentrations of each metabolite change over time. The 't=0 min' time point is the point where the engineered cells are instantaneously introduced (and evenly homogenised) to a solution of DCA with an initial concentratioN OF 0.1Mm.

Regarding the figure legends with in the graphs themselves data 1, data 2, data 3, data 4, data 5 * data 6, represents the concentration of the metabolites αin, αout, β, γ, δ & ε respectively. The bottom graph is a rescaled version of the top graph so as to achieve a higher resolution the dynamics of the metabolites.
