Thermodynamics-Based Metabolic Flux Analysis [PDF]
A new form of metabolic flux analysis (MFA) called thermodynamics-based metabolic flux analysis (TMFA) is introduced with the capability of generating thermodynamically feasible flux and metabolite activity profiles on a genome scale. TMFA involves the use of a set of linear thermodynamic constraints in addition to the mass balance constraints ...

The protein cost of metabolic fluxes: prediction from enzymatic rate laws and cost minimization
Bacterial growth depends crucially on metabolic fluxes, which are limited by the cell's capacity to maintain metabolic enzymes. The necessary enzyme amount per unit flux is a major determinant of metabolic strategies both in evolution and bioengineering.

Micro-Slab Coil Design for Hyperpolarized Metabolic Flux Analysis in Multiple Samples
Abnormal metabolism is a hallmark of cancer cells. Accumulating evidence suggests that metabolic changes are likely to occur before other cellular responses in cancer cells upon drug treatment.

A functional analysis of 180 cancer cell lines reveals conserved intrinsic metabolic programs
Cancer cells reprogram their metabolism to support growth and invasion. While previous work has highlighted how single altered reactions and pathways can drive tumorigenesis, it remains unclear how individual changes propagate at the network level and ...

Chaperonin Abundance Enhances Bacterial Fitness
The ability of chaperonins to buffer mutations that affect protein folding pathways suggests that their abundance should be evolutionarily advantageous. Here, we investigate the effect of chaperonin overproduction on cellular fitness in Escherichia coli.

Genetic diversity is a result of evolution, enabling multiple ways for one particular physiological activity. Here, we introduce this strategy into bioengineering. We design two hydroxytyrosol biosynthetic pathways using tyrosine as substrate.

Analysis of metabolic flux using dynamic labeling and metabolic modeling [PDF]
Metabolic fluxes and the capacity to modulate them are a crucial component of the ability of the plant cell to react to environmental perturbations. Our ability to quantify them and to attain information concerning the regulatory mechanisms which control

Sampling the solution space of genome-scale models is generally conducted to determine the feasible region for metabolic flux distribution. Because the region for actual metabolic states resides only in a small fraction of the entire space, it is ...
