Abstract: | Background In order to improve understanding of metabolic systems there have been attempts to construct S-system models from time courses.
Conventionally, non-linear curve-fitting algorithms have been used for modelling, because of the non-linear properties of
parameter estimation from time series. However, the huge iterative calculations required have hindered the development of
large-scale metabolic pathway models. To solve this problem we propose a novel method involving power-law modelling of metabolic
pathways from the Jacobian of the targeted system and the steady-state flux profiles by linearization of S-systems. |
