Conceptually, this is essentially a set of kinetic or, more specifically, mass balance equations. In an actual cell, there would be hundreds of such exchanges and reactions, and instead of just three metabolites, a large-scale metabolic model might include thousands. For example, in the iMM904 metabolic reconstruction, there are approximately 4,000 metabolites. This example provides only a simple illustration. A real model is typically much larger and more complex, but this basic scenario helps convey the general idea of how Flux Balance Analysis (FBA) works. - ```{figure} _static/fig3-2.jpg :height: 400px :name: figure-fba - Methodology for flux balance analysis {cite:p}`kauffman2003fba`. ``` @@ -62,7 +60,7 @@ We can perform the same process for metabolites B and C as well.
