Abstract: | A mathematical model based on kinetic data taken from the literature is presented for the pentose phosphate pathway in fasted rat liver steady-state. Since the oxidative and non oxidative pentose phosphate pathway can act independently, the complete (oxidative + non oxidative) and the non oxidative pentose pathway were simulated.Sensitivity analyses are reported which show that the fluxes are mainly regulated by D-glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (for the oxidative pathway) and by transketolase (for the non oxidative pathway). The most influent metabolites were the group ATP, ADP, P1 and the group NADPH, NADP+ (for the non oxidative pathway).Abbreviations GK Glucokinase, (E.C. 2.7.1.2.) - G6PDH D-glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, (E.C. 1.1.1.49) - PLase 6-Phosphogluconelactonase, (E.C. 3.1.1.31.) - PGIcDH 6-Phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, (E.C. 1.1.1.44) - RPI D-ribose-5-phosphate keto-isomerase, (E.C. 5.3.1.6) - TK D-sedoheptulose-7-phosphate: D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate glycol-aldehyde transferase, (E.C. 2.2.1.1.) - TA D-sedoheptulose-7-phosphate: D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dihydroxyacetone transferase, (E.C. 2.2.1.2) - EP D-ribulose-5-phosphate-3-epimerase, (E.C. 5.1.3.1) - PGI D-glucose-6-phosphate keto-isomerase, (E.C. 5.3.1.9) - TPI D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate keto-isomerase, (E.C.5.3.1.1) |
