Metabolic Adaptation Processes That Converge to Optimal Biomass Flux Distributions
In simple organisms like E.coli, the metabolic response to an external perturbation passes through a transient phase in which the activation of a number of latent pathways can guarantee survival at the expenses of growth. Growth is gradually recovered as the organism adapts to the new condition. This adaptation can be modeled as a process of repeated metabolic adjustments obtained through the r...
متن کاملFlux distribution of metabolic networks close to optimal biomass production.
We study a statistical model describing the steady-state distribution of the fluxes in a metabolic network. The resulting model defined on continuous variables can be solved by the cavity method. In particular, analytical tractability is possible, solving the cavity equation over an ensemble of networks with the same degree distribution as a real metabolic network. The flux distribution that op...
متن کاملOrganising metabolic networks: Cycles in flux distributions.
Metabolic networks are among the most widely studied biological systems. The topology and interconnections of metabolic reactions have been well described for many species. This is, however, not sufficient to understand how their activity is regulated in living organisms. These descriptions depict a static set of possible chains of reactions, with no information about the dynamic activity of re...
متن کاملTheoretical exploration of optimal metabolic flux distributions for extracellular electron transfer by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1
BACKGROUND Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 is one of the model microorganisms used for extracellular electron transfer. In this study, to elucidate the capability and the relevant metabolic processes of S. oneidensis MR-1 involved in an electron transferring environment, we employed genome-scale modelling to model the necessary metabolic states and flux adjustments for electricity generation in the ...
متن کاملOptimal flux patterns in cellular metabolic networks.
The availability of whole-cell-level metabolic networks of high quality has made it possible to develop a predictive understanding of bacterial metabolism. Using the optimization framework of flux balance analysis, I investigate the metabolic response and activity patterns to variations in the availability of nutrient and chemical factors such as oxygen and ammonia by simulating 30,000 random c...
