Pyology is a object-oriented model of a biological cell, implemented as a Python library. It provides a framework for simulating cellular processes and metabolic pathways.
- Simulates various cellular components and organelles
- Models metabolic pathways such as glycolysis and the Krebs cycle
- Implements energy production mechanisms (ATP synthesis)
- Provides a flexible and extensible architecture for cellular simulations
To install Pyology, you can use pip:
pip install pyologyHere's a basic example of how to use Pyology:
from pyology.cell import Cell
from pyology.simulation import Reporter, SimulationController
# Create a cell and simulation components
cell = Cell()
reporter = Reporter()
sim_controller = SimulationController(cell, reporter)
# Run a simulation with a specific amount of glucose
glucose_amount = 4
results = sim_controller.run_simulation(glucose_amount)
# Access and analyze the results
print(f"Final ATP: {results['final_cytoplasm_atp'] + results['final_mitochondrion_atp']:.2f}")For more detailed examples and usage instructions, please refer to the documentation.
Pyology includes the following main components:
- Cell
- Mitochondrion
- Cytoplasm
- Krebs Cycle
- Endoplasmic Reticulum
- Golgi Apparatus
- Cell Membrane
Each component is modeled to represent its biological counterpart and interact with other components in the simulation.
