Constraint-based metabolic modelling (CBMM) consists in the use of computational methods and tools to perform genome-scale simulations and predict metabolic features at the whole cellular level. This approach is rapidly expanding in microbiology, as it combines reliable predictive abilities with conceptually and technically simple frameworks. Among the possible outcomes of CBMM, the capability to i) guide a focused planning of metabolic engineering experiments and ii) provide a system-level understanding of (single or community-level) microbial metabolic circuits also represent primary aims in present-day marine microbiology. In this work we briefly introduce the theoretical formulation behind CBMM and then review the most recent and effective case studies of CBMM of marine microbes and communities. Also, the emerging challenges and possibilities in the use of such methodologies in the context of marine microbiology/biotechnology are discussed. As the potential applications of CBMM have a very broad range, the topics presented in this review span over a large plethora of fields such as ecology, biotechnology and evolution.
