Elementary flux modes (EFMs) are a well-established tool in metabolic modeling. EFMs are minimal, feasible, steady state pathways through a metabolic network. They are used in various approaches to predict targets for genetic interventions in order to increase production of a molecule of interest via a host cell. Here we give an introduction to the concept of EFMs, present an overview of four methods which use EFMs in order to predict engineering targets and lastly use a toy model and a small-scale metabolic model to demonstrate and compare the capabilities of these methods.
