Popis: SummaryModelling in Synthetic Biology constitutes a powerful tool in our continuous search for improved performance with rational Design-Build-Test-Learn approach. In particular, kinetic models unravel system dynamics, enabling system analysis for guiding experimental designs. However, a systematic yet modular pipeline that allows one to identify the “right” model and guide the experimental designs while tracing the entire model development and analysis is still lacking. Here, we introduce a unified python package, BMSS2, which offers the principal tools in model development and analysis—simulation, Bayesian parameter inference, global sensitivity analysis, with an emphasis on model selection, and a priori and a posteriori identifiability analysis. The whole package is database-driven to support interactive retrieving and storing of models for reusability. This allows ease of manipulation and deposition of models for the model selection and analysis process, thus enabling better utilization of models in guiding experimental designs.Availability and ImplementationThe python package and examples are available on https://github.com/EngBioNUS/BMSS2. A web page which allows users to browse and download the models (SBML format) in MBase is also available with the link provided on GitHub.Supplementary InformationSupplementary data is available.
