run(target=None, biomass=None, substrate=None, max_knockouts=5, variable_size=True, simulation_method=<function fba>, growth_coupled=False, max_evaluations=20000, population_size=200, time_machine=None, max_results=50, use_nullspace_simplification=True, seed=None, **kwargs)[source]
Parameters:
  • target (str, Metabolite or Reaction) – The design target
  • biomass (str, Metabolite or Reaction) – The biomass definition in the model
  • substrate (str, Metabolite or Reaction) – The main carbon source
  • max_knockouts (int) – Max number of knockouts allowed
  • variable_size (bool) – If true, all candidates have the same size. Otherwise the candidate size can be from 1 to max_knockouts.
  • simulation_method (function) – Any method from cameo.flux_analysis.simulation or equivalent
  • growth_coupled (bool) – If true will use the minimum flux rate to compute the fitness
  • max_evaluations (int) – Number of evaluations before stop
  • population_size (int) – Number of individuals in each generation
  • time_machine (TimeMachine) – See TimeMachine
  • max_results (int) – Max number of different designs to return if found.
  • kwargs (dict) – Arguments for the simulation method.
  • seed (int) – A seed for random.
  • use_nullspace_simplification (Boolean (default True)) – Use a basis for the nullspace to find groups of reactions whose fluxes are multiples of each other and dead end reactions. From each of these groups only 1 reaction will be included as a possible knockout.
Returns:

Return type:
