Moiety-conserved cycles and metabolic control analysis: problems in sequestration and metabolic channelling.
This paper considers certain aspects of the analysis of moiety-conserved cycles in terms of metabolic control analysis. Two response coefficients are discussed: the response coefficient with respect to the total number of moles in a cycle (RVT), and the response coefficient with respect to perturbations to the internal state of a pathway (RVS). The relationship between these two different measu...
متن کاملDefining control coefficients in non-ideal metabolic pathways.
The extent to which an enzyme controls a flux has been defined as the effect on that flux of a small modulation of the activity of that enzyme divided by the magnitude of the modulation. We here show that in pathways with metabolic channelling or high enzyme concentrations and conserved moieties involving both enzymic and non-enzymic species, this definition is ambiguous; the magnitude of the c...
متن کاملOn the role of enzyme kinetic parameters in determining the effectiveness with which channelling can decrease the size of a metabolite pool.
Recently, it has been argued that the phenomenon of direct transfer of intermediate metabolites between adjacent enzymes, also known as metabolic channelling, would not decrease the concentration of those intermediates in the 'bulk' solution. However, this conclusion has been drawn by extrapolation from the results of simulations with a rather restricted set of parameters. We show that, for a n...
متن کاملMetabolic channelling of carbamoyl phosphate in the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus: dynamic enzyme-enzyme interactions involved in the formation of the channelling complex.
Protection of thermolabile metabolites and coenzymes is a somewhat neglected but essential aspect of the molecular physiology of hyperthermophiles. Detailed information about the mechanisms used by thermophiles to protect these thermolabile metabolites and coenzymes is still scarce. A case in point is CP (carbamoyl phosphate), a precursor of pyrimidines and arginine, which is an extremely labil...
متن کاملEffect of channelling on the concentration of bulk-phase intermediates as cytosolic proteins become more concentrated.
This paper shows that metabolic channelling can provide a mechanism for decreasing the concentration of metabolites in the cytoplasm when cytosolic proteins become more concentrated. A dynamic complex catalysing the direct transfer of an intermediate is compared with the analogous pathway lacking a channel (an "ideal" pathway). In an ideal pathway a proportional increase in protein content does...
