  36. Summary • First draft dynamic models can be obtained from using measured concentration values, elementary reactions, and associated mass action kinetics. • This first draft can be used as a scaffold to build more complicated models that include regulatory effects and interactions with other pathways. • Dynamic simulation can be performed for perturbation in environmental parameters and the responses examined in terms of the concentrations and the fluxes. • A metabolic map can be analyzed for its stoichiometric texture to assess the co-factor coupling • Such breakdown of the biochemistry helps define pools that are physiologically meaningful from a metabolic perspective, and are context dependent.

  37. Summary • The raw output of the simulation can be post processed with a pooling matrix that allows the pools and their ratios to be graphed to obtain a deeper interpretation of dynamic responses. • Some of the responses are built into the topological features of a network and require no regulatory action. • The identification of the reactions that move the key pools is possible by the use of the stoichiometric matrix.
