Genome-Scale NAD(H/+) Availability Patterns as a Differentiating Feature between Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Scheffersomyces stipitis in Relation to Fermentative Metabolism

TL;DR: Each yeast can be characterized by a significantly different metabolic response and flux span when growth is limited by oxygen uptake, both features suggesting a higher metabolic flexibility in S. cerevisiae.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design of process-compatible biological agents

TL;DR: In this work the problem of optimizing cellular metabolic networks has been formulated as a Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming (MINLP) model, which can assist genetic engineers to identify which cellular enzymes should be modified and the new levels of activity required to produce an optimal network.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mathematical modeling of living cell metabolism using the method of steady-state stoichiometric flux balance.

TL;DR: This approach uses a set of algebraic linear equations for reaction rates (the method of steady- state stoichiometric flux balance) to model the purposeful metabolism of the living self-reproducing biochemical system (i.e. cell), which persists in steady-state growth.

Model-guided development of an evolutionarily stable yeast chassis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report the development of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chassis strains for dicarboxylic acid production using genome-scale metabolic modelling, which is used for designing microbial chassis that are resilient against phenotype reversal due to adaptive mutations.

Linear and nonlinear programming

TL;DR: Strodiot and Zentralblatt as discussed by the authors introduced the concept of unconstrained optimization, which is a generalization of linear programming, and showed that it is possible to obtain convergence properties for both standard and accelerated steepest descent methods.

The pathways of glutamate and glutamine oxidation by tumor cell mitochondria. Role of mitochondrial NAD(P)+-dependent malic enzyme.

TL;DR: Analysis of oxidative pathways of glutamine and glutamate showed that extramitochondrial malate is oxidized almost quantitatively to pyruvate + CO2 by NAD(P)+-linked malic enzyme, present in the mitochondria of all tumors tested, but absent in heart, liver, and kidney mitochondria.
