Effect of Escherichia coli biomass composition on central metabolic fluxes predicted by a stoichiometric model.

TL;DR: Although the fatty acid composition of the membranes did change significantly with carbon source and dilution rate, the amino acid content of proteins did not change significantly under either condition.

How will bioinformatics influence metabolic engineering

TL;DR: This article shows how the genomically defined microbial metabolic genotypes can be analyzed by FBA, and discusses the advantage of this approach, and how FBA is expected to find uses in the near future.

Examination of primary metabolic pathways in a murine hybridoma with carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

TL;DR: Primary metabolism of a murine hybridoma was probed with 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to determine the intracellular concentration of several metabolic intermediates and to determine fluxes for primary metabolic pathways.

Methods and systems to identify operational reaction pathways

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for identifying an operational reaction pathway of a biosystem is presented. But the method is restricted to a set of systemic reaction pathways and does not consider phenomenological reaction pathways.

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.
