Figure 1: Overview of simulating DBR biotransformation from Toogood, et. al, 2015.

SUMMARY This DBR simulation is of the biotransformation experiment as described in Toogood, et. al. (2015) [1]. The experiment observed a percentage yield of 40% and 33% of menthone and isomenthone respectively after 24 hours. An overview of the simulation including the concentration of enzyme, substrate and cofactor is shown in Figure 1. Ensemble modelling of this reaction was carried out for 200 samples where the kinetic parameters were sampled randomly from 7 probability distributions. To describe the production variability of menthone to isomenthone, a variability factor (X1 and X2) were included in the reaction equation. These variabililty factors were calculated from the average product ratio sampled from a probability distribution.





















Average Product Ratio

Figure 2: Probability distribution of average product ratio values

Yield ratio of menthone:isomenthone were reported in Toogood, et. al.(2015) [1] (40:33), Solodar (1976) [2] (70:30) and Ringer, et. al. (2003) [3] (55:45).
