Chemical Transformation Motifs - Modelling Pathways as Integer Hyperflows

TL;DR: An elaborate framework for formally modelling pathways in chemical reaction networks on a mechanistic level is presented, modelled mathematically as directed multi-hypergraphs, with vertices corresponding to molecules and hyperedges to reactions.

Elucidation and Synthetic Design of Biochemical Pathways using novoStoic

Akhil Kumar
TL;DR: This dissertation discusses and demonstrates solutions to two key challenges in the development of computational designs for the biosynthesis of xenobiotics, including the capacity of various algorithms and computer-aided design (CAD) tools to conceive novel biosynthetic pathway designs while syncretizing various engineering challenges.

Articles of manufacture and methods for modeling Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolism

TL;DR: In this article, an in-silico model for determining a S. cerevisiae physiological function was proposed, which includes a data structure that relates a plurality of S cerevisia reactants to a plurality or set of S. reactions, a constraint set for the plurality of reactions, and commands for determining the distribution of flux through the reactions.

Flux analysis of mammalian cell cultures : methods and applications

TL;DR: The Flux-Balance Models helped clarify the role of “cell reprograming” in the design of Mammalian Cell Culture and allowed us to assess the importance of cell reprogramming in both the design and application of the models.

In Silico analysis of perturbed steroidogenesis and gonad growth in fathead minnows (P. promelas) exposed to 17α-ethynylestradiol

TL;DR: The analyses presented are the first-ever to successfully associate underlying flux properties of the steroidogenic network with gonad growth in fish, an approach which can incorporate in silico predictions with toxicological risk assessments.

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.
