Team:SCUT/Model/N-butanol simulation

Introduction

We model the biochemical reactions of this pathway by using Michealis-Menton kinetics and then model them by kinetics at the beginning of the reactions when no products have been accumulated. Finally, considering the special environment of mitochondria, we study the effects of the high concentrations of NADH and NADPH , which is abundant in mitochondria.

Simulation

For thiolase [erg10], the reaction is

The rate expression is defined as

For 3-hydroxybutyryl-coa dehydrogenase[Hbd], the reaction is

Ordinary differential equations

About the initial concentration
We set the concentration of Actyl-CoA to 1000μM, and consider it as a constant.
For simplify ,we set the concentration of NADH and NADPH to 200μM and 100μM respectively and also consider it as a constant .Concentrations of all other metabolite are set to 0 in the beginning.
