Stoichiometric Coefficients

Stoichiometric coefficients denote the proportions, with which the molecules of substrates and products enter the biochemical reactions.

Example Catalase2222 OOH2OH2

Stoichiometric coefficients for Hydrogenperoxid, water, oxygen -2 2 1

Stoichiometric coefficients can be chosen such that they agree with molecularity, but not necessarily.

Their signs depend on the chosen reaction direction. Since reactions are usually reversible,one cannot distinguish between „substrate“ and „product“. v - v

In general: We consider the substances Si and their

stoichiometric coefficients nij in the respective reaction j.

If the biochemical reactions are the only reason for the change of concentration of metabolites, i.e. if there is no mass flow by convection, diffusion or similarThen one can express the temporal behavior of concentrations by the balance equations.

zu BerlinRepresentation of Kernel Matrix

The Kernel matrix K is not uniquely determined. Every linear combination of columns is also a Possible solution. Matrix multiplication with a regular Matrix Q „from right“ gives another Kernel matrix.

For some applications one needs a simple ("kanonical") representation of the Kernel matrix.

A possible and appropriate choice is

K contains many zeros.

Non-negative Flux Vectors

In many biologically relevant situations have fluxes fixed signs.We can define their direction such that

Sometimes is the value of individual ratesfixed.

Both conditions restrict the freedom for the choice of Basis vectors for K.

-An elementary flux mode comprises all reaction steps, Leading from a substrate S to a product P.

-Each of these steps in necessary to maintain a steady state.
