    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; the Crabtree effect; enzyme-constraints; stunting; cellular economy; the Warburg effect; uncoupling; tumor; flux balance analysis; lactate threshold; metabolite depletion;

    Abstract : Growth is the primary objective of the cell. Diseases arise when cells diverge from a healthy growth-pattern. An increased understanding of cellular growth may thus be translated into improved human health. The cell requires materials and free energy (in the form of ATP) in order to grow, metabolism supplies the cell with this. READ MORE

  2. 2. Computing abundance constraints in Saccharomyces cerevisiae’s metabolism

    Author : Benjamín José Sánchez; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Genome-scale modeling; lipidomics; proteomics; flux balance analysis;

    Abstract : The unicellular eukaryotic organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae (budding yeast) is routinely used for production of high-value chemical compounds in the biotechnology industry. To improve production yields, it is fundamental to understand cellular metabolism, i.e. all biochemical reactions that occur inside the cell. READ MORE
