Table 1. Experimentally determined fluxes and 95% confidence intervals estimated from MFA model using [U-13C5]glutamine as a tracer.

  Flux Confidence interval Flux Confidence interval  
Detailed description, assumptions, complete results, and data are available in Supplementary information. Net flux: (υF−υR) ( → ) and Exchange flux: min (υFR) (↔). Some scaling and undetermined exchange fluxes (i.e., confidence intervals of infinity, Inf) are omitted for brevity. Comparison of fluxes (Transformed versus Normal) is described as U=up, D=down, NC=no change, and ND=no detectable. Fluxes are listed × 1014 mol/(cell × h).
