In a previous work [Acerenza, L. (1993). Metabolic Control Design. J. theor. Biol. 165, 63-85] we devised a procedure to design metabolic systems that respond according to pre-established patterns. This procedure includes the mandatory structural and kinetic constraints that narrow the spectrum of r

In the top down approach to metabolic control analysis, reactions are grouped together into a few large blocks connected by a small number of intermediates. Control is analysed by adding inhibitors or activators that work within single blocks and measuring intermediates and fluxes, or by adding new
The results of the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) and the United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS) showed that tight glycemic control with any of several therapeutic regiments has the potential to significantly reduce the risks for long-term microvascular complications of t
In this minireview, several different approaches to derivation of the theorems and relationships of Metabolic Control Analysis (MCA) are discussed and an alternative approach is presented. This new approach consists of solving the steady-state mass balances for the intracellular metabolites using li
The problems of engineering increased flux in metabolic pathways are analyzed in terms of the understanding provided by metabolic control analysis. Overexpression of a single enzyme is unlikely to be effective unless it is known to have a high flux control coefficient, which can be used as an approx
A central quantity for the analysis of the interdependence of control coefficients is the Jacobian H of the pathway. For a simple metabolic chain, H is known to be tridiagonal. Its inverse H-1, which is required to calculate control coefficients, is semi-separable. A semi-separable nxn matrix (aij)
