When C L, C P, J V and intestinal volume are in a steady-state it is assumed that lymph flow rate (J V, L ) equals net transcapillary volume flow (J V, C ), and lymph protein concentration (C L ) equals the interstitial protein concentration (C I ).

Gopinath, K.M. Nampoothiri, in Encyclopedia of Food Microbiology (Second Edition), 2014 Metabolic Flux Distribution during Glutamate Synthesis The flux analysis over the EMP pathway and the pentose phosphate pathway (HMP) has been done with C 13-labeled substrate, because the latter supplies the reducing power for biosynthesis, including production of glutamate.

It was shown that the flux into the HMP decreases during glutamate overproduction ( Ishino et al., 1991 ).

The EMPHMP ratio was estimated to be 8020 during glutamate production, in sharp contrast to lysine production, in which this ratio is 3070 to 4060.

From these results, it is supposed that regulation of the EMPHMP ratio has an important role in maintaining the balance of the metabolic network under l -glutamate overproduction.

Even though both GDH and ICDH activities were enhanced, the flux distribution was not changed significantly.

When the ODHC activity was attenuated, however, the flux through ODHC decreased, and l -glutamate production was increased markedly.

The details of the metabolic flux change model accommodating the various observations and dynamic flux changes have been described ( Kimura et al., 1997; Wendisch et al., 2000 ).

Regulation mechanisms of ODHC enzyme activity in C.

The regulatory mechanism in ODHC activity by the phosphorylation state of OdhI establishes one clue for understanding the mechanism of glutamate overproduction by C.

Tae Yong Kim, in Methods in Enzymology, 2011 1.3 Constraints-based flux analysis Constraints-based flux analysis is a general mathematical method using optimization-based simulation techniques to analyze cellular metabolism under a specified environmental or genetic condition and predict metabolic capability when the specified conditions are perturbed ( Park et al., 2009 ).

To implement constraints-based flux analysis, a stoichiometric model needs to be first constructed based on genomic information, databases, and literatures.

The biomass composition determined by the experiments is applied to the model.

If the simulation results do not correspond with experimental data, the model needs to be refined further by an iterative process until the differences between predictions and experiments are resolved.

D) Systems metabolic engineering for strain improvement by combining experimental and in silico procedures (12-13).

The gray arrows indicate the procedures for the construction of the model.

The black arrows indicate the procedure for the simulation and validation of the model and its application.

Reconstruction of the in silico genome-scale metabolic model begins with utilizing the genome annotation to generate a collection of metabolic reactions and the stoichiometric coefficients of the metabolites, giving a set of linear mass balance equations for cellular metabolites describing the cellular metabolism ( Davidsen et al., 2010; Kanehisa et al., 2010 ).

This collection of equations forms the foundation of the metabolic network.

Gaps in the metabolic network, due to insufficient data or characterization in the genome annotation, are filled in, and the errors are corrected based on knowledge from literature, databases, and experiments.

The in silico genome-scale metabolic model is then validated by comparing simulation results with actual experimental data.

If the simulation results differ greatly from experimental observations, the metabolic model should be refined iteratively until the discrepancies are resolved ( Fig.

After the in silico genome-scale metabolic model has been validated by iterative processes, constrains-based flux analysis can be utilized using appropriate objective functions (e.g., maximization of cell growth rate) and constraints that restrict the solution space of the model to exclude incorrect or infeasible metabolic states.

In this chapter, we focus on the methods of constraints-based flux analysis using the genome-scale metabolic model and its applications in systems metabolic engineering for strain improvement.

In brief, total lymph flow, (J V, L ) lymph protein concentration (C L ) and plasma protein concentration (C P ) were measured in isolated autoperfused cat ileum preparations.

In one series of experiments capillary filtration rate (and lymph flow) was enhanced in a graded fashion by stepwise elevation of venous pressure (5).

Steady-state values of C L, C P, and J V, L were acquired at each venous pressure under isovolumetric conditions.
