Genome-scale model reconstruction represents a major tool in the field of MetabolicEngineering .This paper reports on a study about data integration issues in the process of genome-scale reconstruction of the metabolic model of the bacterium Zymomonas mobilis, apromising organism for bioethanol production. Data is retrieved from the Entrez Gene, KEGG,BioCyc and Brenda databases, and the several processes involved in data integration from thesesources are described, as well as the data quality issues.
