This paper presents an extension of stoichiometric analysis in systems where the catalytic compounds (enzymes) are also intermediates of the metabolic network (dual property), so they are produced and degraded by the reaction network itself. To take this property into account, we introduce the definition of enzyme-maintaining mode, a set of reactions that produces its own catalyst and can opera...

in this paper, an adaptive attitude control algorithm is developed based on neural network for a satellite using four reaction wheels in a tetrahedron configuration. then, an attitude control based on feedback linearization control has been designed and uncertainties in the moment of inertia matrix and disturbances torque have been considered. in order to eliminate the effect of these uncertain...

In a recent paper [C. Marr, M. Müller-Linow, and M.-T. Hütt, Phys. Rev. E 75, 041917 (2007)] we discuss the pronounced potential of real metabolic network topologies, compared to randomized counterparts, to regularize complex binary dynamics. In their comment [P. Holme and M. Huss, arXiv:0705.4084v1], Holme and Huss criticize our approach and repeat our study with more realistic dynamics, where...

What is the relationship between enzymes and metabolites, the two major constituents of metabolic networks? We propose three alternative relationships between enzyme capacity and metabolite concentration alterations based on a Michaelis-Menten kinetic; that is enzyme capacities, metabolite concentrations, or both could limit the metabolic reaction rates. These relationships imply different corr...

Genome-scale metabolic network reconstructions are now routinely used in the study of metabolic pathways, their evolution and design. The development of such reconstructions involves the integration of information on reactions and metabolites from the scientific literature as well as public databases and existing genome-scale metabolic models. The reconciliation of discrepancies between data fr...

Today, graph theory represents one of the most important modeling techniques in biology. One applications is study metabolic networks. During metabolism, a set sequential biochemical reactions takes place, which convert or more molecules into final products. In reaction, transformation metabolite next requires class proteins called enzymes that are responsible for catalyzing reaction. Whether b...

Many properties of complex networks cannot be understood from monitoring the components--not even when comprehensively monitoring all protein or metabolite concentrations--unless such information is connected and integrated through mathematical models. The reason is that static component concentrations, albeit extremely informative, do not contain functional information per se. The functional b...

Metabolic network reconstructions define metabolic information within a target organism and can therefore be used to address incomplete metabolic information. In the present study we used a computational approach to identify human metabolites whose metabolism is incomplete on the basis of their detection in humans but exclusion from the human metabolic network reconstruction RECON 1. Candidate ...

This paper describes an approach that uses methods for automated sequence analysis (Gaasterland et al. August 1994) and multiple databases accessed through an object+attribute view of the data (Baehr et al. 1992), together with metabolic pathways, reaction equations, and compounds parsed into a logical representation from the Enzyme and Metabolic Pathway Database (Selkov, Yunus, & et.al. 1994),...
