class freeflux.core.emu.EMU(id, metabolite, atom_nos)[source]

Define EMU (i.e., elementary metabolite unit) object and its operations.

EMUs in the same metabolite and with the same atom NOs are considered as identical, while metabolites which they derived from could be different.

EMUs can be compared based self.metabolite_id and self.atom_nos. EMU and iterable object of EMUs can also be compared. In this case EMU will be put into the same iterable object with single item, and comparison between two iterables are performed.

Currently only binary equivalents are considered.

Parameters:

  • id (str) – EMU ID

  • metabolite (Metabolite or str) – Which metabolite the EMU comes from.

  • atom_nos (list of int or str) – Atom NOs, sorted by number.
