化学反应网络中的自由能传递:从酶到代谢

Free-Energy Transduction in Chemical Reaction Networks: from Enzymes to Metabolism

Artur Wachtel, Riccardo Rao, Massimiliano Esposito

摘要:

我们提供了一个严格的定义,自由能转导和它的效率在任意线性或非线性开放的化学反应网络(CRN)在稳态运行。我们的方法是基于知识的化学计量矩阵和chemostated物种(即物种保持在恒定浓度的环境),以确定的基本电流和部队的熵产生。当一个化学计量平衡过程的电流由于其他过程沿其自发方向流动而被驱动逆其自发方向(由其力设定)时,就会发生转导。在这些制度中,开放CRN作为热力学机器运行。在使用玩具模型举例说明这些一般想法后,我们分析了中心能量代谢。我们将基本电流与代谢途径联系起来,并讨论它们能够吸收自由能的效率。

英文摘要:

We provide a rigorous definition of free-energy transduction and its efficiency in arbitrary -- linear or nonlinear -- open chemical reaction networks (CRNs) operating at steady state. Our method is based on the knowledge of the stoichiometric matrix and of the chemostatted species (i.e. the species maintained at constant concentration by the environment) to identify the fundamental currents and forces contributing to the entropy production. Transduction occurs when the current of a stoichiometrically balanced process is driven against its spontaneous direction (set by its force) thanks to other processes flowing along their spontaneous direction. In these regimes, open CRNs operate as thermodynamic machines. After exemplifying these general ideas using toy models, we analyze central energy metabolism. We relate the fundamental currents to metabolic pathways and discuss the efficiency with which they are able to transduce free energy.
