Optimal 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...
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 کاملFlux networks in metabolic graphs.
A metabolic model can be represented as a bipartite graph comprising linked reaction and metabolite nodes. Here it is shown how a network of conserved fluxes can be assigned to the edges of such a graph by combining the reaction fluxes with a conserved metabolite property such as molecular weight. A similar flux network can be constructed by combining the primal and dual solutions to the linear...
متن کاملUnderstanding flux in plant metabolic networks.
The revolutionary growth in our ability to identify the 'parts list' of cellular infrastructure in plants in detail, and to alter it with precision, challenges us to develop methods to quantify how these parts function. For components of metabolism, this means mapping fluxes at the level of metabolic networks. Advances in experimental, analytical and software tools for metabolic flux analysis n...
متن کاملViable flux distribution in metabolic networks
The metabolic networks are very well characterized for a large set of organisms, a unique case in within thelarge-scale biological networks. For this reason they provide a a very interesting framework for the construction of analytically tractable statistical mechanics models. In this paper we introduce a solvable model for the distribution of fluxes in the metabolic network. We show that the e...
