RetroTide v1.0

Abstract

RetroTide is a retrobiosynthesis software tool, designed to guide the design of biological pathways to make valuable small molecules. It takes as input a desired small molecule chemical structure, and outputs a design for a polyketide synthase enzyme (PKS) that has the closest possible chemical structure, as accessible by PKS chemistry. It is developed as a Python software library, and internally performs a search of the PKS design space, while simulating the chemicals produced by each design.
