Microbial pathogens are constantly developing resistance to antibiotics, giving impetus for the development of efficient methods for drug targeting and discovery. Genome-scale biological network is expected to play a significant role, as it has succeeded in capturing the physiological characteristics of various organisms. We herein employed two systematic approaches. One of them is constraints-based flux analysis, an optimization-based simulation technique that calculates metabolic fluxes (1). Another important work is chokepoint analysis, which is network-topology-based method that selects enzymes or metabolites as a target that has a single ingoing and/or outgoing reaction (2). We combined these methods to generate novel drug targets in several emerging drug-resistant pathogens, including Escherichia coli, Helicobacter pylori, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Staphylococcus aureus. This study demonstrates that drug targeting using in silico approaches enables a rational design of experiments applicable to biomedical science.
