Abstract
Motivation: Molecular biotechnology now makes it possible to build elaborate systems models, but the systems biology community needs information standards if models are to be shared, evaluated and developed cooperatively. Results: We summarize the Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML) Level 1, a free, open, XML-based format for representing biochemical reaction networks. SBML is a software-independent language for describing models common to research in many areas of computational biology, including cell signaling pathways, metabolic pathways, gene regulation, and others. ∗ To whom correspondence should be addressed. Availability: The specification of SBML Level 1 is freely available from http://www.sbml.org/.

Quantitative prediction of cellular metabolism with constraint-based models: the COBRA Toolbox v2.0

TL;DR: The constraint-based reconstruction and analysis toolbox as discussed by the authors is a software package running in the Matlab environment, which allows for quantitative prediction of cellular behavior using a constraintbased approach and allows predictive computations of both steady-state and dynamic optimal growth behavior, the effects of gene deletions, comprehensive robustness analyses, sampling the range of possible cellular metabolic states and the determination of network modules.
