The determination of these parameters using the traditional metabolic control analysis relationships is, however, limited by experimental difficulties (e.g. realizing and measuring small changes in biological systems) and lack of appropriate mathematical procedures (e.g. when the more practical large changes are made). In this paper, the recently developed lin-log approach is proposed to avoid the above-mentioned problems and is applied to estimate control parameters from measurements obtained in steady state experiments. The lin-log approach employs approximative linear-logarithmic kinetics parameterized by elasticities and provides analytical solutions for fluxes and metabolite concentrations when large changes are made. Published flux and metabolite concentration data are used, obtained from a reconstructed section of glycolysis converting 3-phosphoglycerate to pyruvate [Giersch, C. (1995) Eur. J. Biochem. 227, 194-201]. With the lin-log approach, all data from different experiments can be combined to give realistic elasticity and flux control coefficient estimates by linear regression. Despite the large changes, a good agreement of fluxes and metabolite concentrations is obtained between the measured and calculated values according to the lin-log model. Furthermore, it is shown that the lin-log approach allows a rigorous statistical evaluation to identify the optimal reference state and the optimal model structure assumption. In conclusion, the lin-log approach addresses practical problems encountered in the traditional metabolic control analysis-based methods by introducing suitable nonlinear kinetics, thus providing a novel framework with improved procedures for the estimation of elasticities and control parameters from large perturbation experiments.</p>","PeriodicalId":11817,"journal":{"name":"European journal of biochemistry","volume":"271 16","pages":"3348-59"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/j.0014-2956.2004.04269.x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40888141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
