Metabolic flux analysis using 13C labeled substrates is an important tool for metabolic engineering. Although it has now been evolving for more than ten years, metabolic flux analysis has still not reached the limits of its application.…
Carbon isotope labeling method is a standard metabolic engineering tool for flux quantification in living cells. To cope with the high dimensionality of isotope labeling systems, diverse algorithms have been developed to reduce the number…
Metabolic flux balance analyses are a standard tool in analysing metabolic reaction rates compatible with measurements, steady-state and the metabolic reaction network stoichiometry. Flux analysis methods commonly place unrealistic…
Flux balance analysis has proven an effective tool for analyzing metabolic networks. In flux balance analysis, reaction rates and optimal pathways are ascertained by solving a linear program, in which the growth rate is maximized subject to…
Isotopically non-stationary metabolic flux analysis (INST $^{13}$C-MFA) provides unique insights into cellular physiology but is typically limited by low throughput and high experimental costs. Here, we present a miniaturized and automated…
Metabolic pathways are fundamental maps in biochemistry that detail how molecules are transformed through various reactions. The complexity of metabolic network, where a single compound can play a part in multiple pathways, poses a…
Constraint-based metabolic models can be used to investigate the intracellular physiology of microorganisms. These models couple genes to reactions, and typically seek to predict metabolite fluxes that optimize some biologically important…
Quite generally, constraint-based metabolic flux analysis describes the space of viable flux configurations for a metabolic network as a high-dimensional polytope defined by the linear constraints that enforce the balancing of production…
Metabolic fluxes are the rates of life-sustaining chemical reactions within a cell and metabolites are the components. Determining the changes in these fluxes is crucial to understanding diseases with metabolic causes and consequences.…
An Elementary Flux Mode (EFM) is a pathway with minimum set of reactions that are functional in steady-state constrained space. Due to the high computational complexity of calculating EFMs, different approaches have been proposed to find…
Assuming a steady-state condition within a cell, metabolic fluxes satisfy an under-determined linear system of stoichiometric equations. Characterizing the space of fluxes that satisfy such equations along with given bounds (and possibly…
Elementary flux modes (EFMs) are pathways through a metabolic reaction network that connect external substrates to products. Using EFMs, a metabolic network can be transformed into its macroscopic counterpart, in which the internal…
A major theme in constraint-based modeling is unifying experimental data, such as biochemical information about the reactions that can occur in a system or the composition and localization of enzyme complexes, with highthroughput data…
Elementary flux modes (EFMs) are vectors defined from a metabolic reaction network, giving the connections between substrates and products. EFMs-based metabolic flux analysis (MFA) estimates the flux over each EFM from external flux…

Constraint-based stoichiometric models are ubiquitous in metabolic research, with Flux Balance Analysis (FBA) being the most widely used method to describe metabolic phenotypes of cells growing in steady-state. Of the many variants of…
13C-based metabolic flux analysis (13C-MFA) is a cornerstone of quantitative systems biology, yet its increasing data complexity and methodological diversity place high demands on simulation software. We introduce 13CFLUX(v3), a…
The computational study of conformational transitions in RNA and proteins with atomistic molecular dynamics often requires suitable enhanced sampling techniques. We here introduce a novel method where concurrent metadynamics are integrated…
Dynamic flux balance analysis uses a quasi-steady state assumption to calculate an organism's metabolic activity at each time-step of a dynamic simulation, using the well-known technique of flux balance analysis. For microbial communities,…
