Metabolic (reaction) network from two different perspectives. A system of biochemical reactions can be analyzed using classical distribution analysis (top) with emphasis on the determination of individual flux (k ij’s) and pool sizes (S i’s)(concentrations). The metabolic network can also be studied from a bioengineering point of view (bottom), i.e., the response characteristics of the system of fluxes (v’s) enclosed within the boundary.
