CONCERTO

Concerto is a memote repository for a community-level genome-scale metabolic model Memote test results for the models

Overview

This repository contains the continuous validation environment for a community-level genome-scale metabolic model (GEM) using Memote. Memote is a software tool that provides a suite of tests to ensure the quality and consistency of metabolic models. By integrating Memote into a continuous integration (CI) workflow, we can automatically validate updates to the GEM, ensuring that model modifications improve or maintain the model's integrity.

Features

• Automated Testing: Utilize Memote for automated testing of metabolic model properties such as stoichiometric consistency, gene-protein-reaction (GPR) associations, and reaction SBO terms.
• Continuous Integration: Integrate with CI platforms like GitHub Actions or Travis CI to run Memote tests on every commit, ensuring model quality over time.
• Version Control: Track changes to the GEM using Git, allowing for revertible updates and collaborative development.
• Memote Report: Generate and store Memote history reports to visualize the model's quality over time and identify areas for improvement.
• Documentation: Detailed instructions for setting up the environment, running tests, and interpreting Memote reports.
