We demonstrate an approach to automatically generating kinetic models of metabolic networks. In a first step, the metabolic network is characterised by its stoichiometric structure. Then to each reaction a kinetic equation is associated describing the metabolic flux. For the kinetics we use a formula that is universally applicable to reactions with arbitrary numbers of substrates and products. Last, the kinetics of the reactions are assigned parameters. The resulting model in SBML format can be fed into standard simulation tools. The approach is applied to the sulphur-glutathione-pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Background: Drug and protein targets affect the physiological functions and metabolic effects of the body through bonding reactions, and accurate prediction of drug-protein target interactions is crucial for drug development. In order to shorten the drug development cycle and reduce costs, machine learning methods are gradually playing an important role in the field of drug-target interactions.

Results: Compared with other methods, regression-based drug target affinity is more representative of the binding ability.

The COVID-19 pandemic triggered a global pivot to virtual care (VC) technologies. While there has been considerable academic work exploring the "how" of VC, few studies have explored the impact of this pivot, its unintended consequences, and its governing rationales. This study addresses this gap in relation to care, professional identity and the evolving requirements for health professions education.
