Schematic representation of the reconstruction process used for the genome-scale metabolic network of Bacillus megaterium DSM319. (a) Based on genome alignment, 734 reactions of iMZ1055 were included in the reconstruction of the initial draft network. (b) The initial draft network was modified by performing several manual curation steps, utilization of Bacillus species GenBank genomes for multiple-alignment and further addition of relevant reactions to the model, and refining the model based on phenotyping data. Solid arrows represent the process direction and dotted lines relate to the operations that were performed based on the available data in public databases. “167 Reactions”, “174 Reactions” and “358 Reactions” refer to “the reactions that had at least one associated gene in COM and at least one associated gene in BMW”, “the reactions that were associated with some gene(s) of COM” and “the similar reactions that were present in the other four Bacillus GEMs”, respectively (see Supplementary Information).
