The relationship between pathway network analysis and isotopomer distribution analysis. Pathway network is fully reconstructed from genomic database using a constrained-based model. Linear programming is then used to solve for all possible solutions, the result of which is a metabolic phenotype space in the form of a convex cone. Tracer based metabolomics is the experimental approach by which a specific metabolic phenotype can be defined.
