With the rapid growth of micro-organism metabolic networks, acquiring the intracellular concentration of microorganisms' metabolites accurately in large-batch is critical to the development of metabolic engineering and synthetic biology. Complementary to the experimental methods, computational methods were used as effective assessing tools for the studies of intracellular concentrations of metabolites. In this study, the dataset of 130 metabolites from E. coli and S. cerevisiae with available experimental concentrations were utilized to develop a SVM model of the negative logarithm of the concentration (-logC). In this statistic model, in addition to common descriptors of molecular properties, two special types of descriptors including metabolic network topologic descriptors and metabolic pathway descriptors were included. All 1997 descriptors were finally reduced into 14 by variable selections including genetic algorithm (GA). The model was evaluated through internal validations by 10-fold and leave-one-out (LOO) cross-validation, as well as external validations by predicting -logC values of the test set. The developed SVM model is robust and has a strong predictive potential (n = 91, m = 14, R2 = 0.744, RMSE = 0.730, Q2 = 0.57; R2p = 0.59, RMSEp = 0.702, Q2p = 0.58). An effective tool could be provided by this analysis for the large-batch prediction of the intracellular concentrations of the micro-organisms' metabolites.

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
