The metabolic pathway known as gluconeogenesis, which produces glucose from non-carbohydrate substrates, is essential for maintaining balanced blood sugar levels while fasting. It's extremely important to anticipate gluconeogenesis rates accurately to recognize metabolic disorders and create efficient treatment strategies. The implementation of deep learning and machine learning methods to forecast complex biological processes has been gaining popularity in recent years. The recognition of both the regulation of the pathway and possible therapeutic applications of proteins depends on accurate identification associated with their gluconeogenesis patterns. This article analyzes the uses of machine learning and deep learning models, to predict gluconeogenesis efficiency. The study also discusses the challenges that come with restricted data availability and model interpretability, as well as possible applications in personalized healthcare, metabolic disease treatment, and the discovery of drugs. The predictor utilizes statistics moments on the structures of gluconeogenesis and their enzymes, while Random Forest is utilized as a classifier to ensure the accuracy of this model in identifying the best outcomes. The method was validated utilizing the independent test, self-consistency, 10 k fold cross-validations, and jackknife test which achieved 92.33 %, 91.87 %, 87.88 %, and 87.02 %. An accurate prediction of gluconeogenesis has significant implications for understanding metabolic disorders and developing targeted therapies. This study contributes to the rising field of predictive biology by mixing algorithms for deep learning, and machine learning, with metabolic pathways.
