Regulating the cellular economy of supply and demand

JHS Hofmeyr, A Cornish-Bowden - FEBS letters, 2000 - Wiley Online Library
Cellular metabolism is a molecular economy that is functionally organised into supply and
demand blocks linked by metabolic products and cofactor cycles. Supply–demand analysis …

Quantitative assessment of regulation in metabolic systems

JHS HOFMEYR… - European Journal of …, 1991 - Wiley Online Library
We show how metabolic regulation as commonly understood in biochemistry can be
described in terms of metabolic control analysis. The steady‐state values of the variables of …

[HTML][HTML] Standards for Reporting Enzyme Data: The STRENDA Consortium: What it aims to do and why it should be helpful

…, A Cornish-Bowden, PJ Halling, JH Hofmeyr… - Perspectives in …, 2014 - Elsevier
Data on enzyme activities and kinetics have often been reported with insufficient experimental
detail to allow their repetition. This paper discusses the objectives and recommendations …

The complexity of failure: Implications of complexity theory for safety investigations

S Dekker, P Cilliers, JH Hofmeyr - Safety science, 2011 - Elsevier
Complexity theory suggests that we see performance as an emergent property, the result of
complex interactions and relationships. This can clash, however, with what stakeholders see …

[BOOK][B] Systems biology: philosophical foundations

F Boogerd, FJ Bruggeman, JHS Hofmeyr… - 2007 - books.google.com
Systems biology is a vigorous and expanding discipline, in many ways a successor to
genomics and perhaps unprecedented in its combination of biology with a great many other …

Defining and measuring autophagosome flux—concept and reality

B Loos, A Toit, JHS Hofmeyr - Autophagy, 2014 - Taylor & Francis
The autophagic system is involved in both bulk degradation of primarily long-lived cytoplasmic
proteins as well as in selective degradation of cytoplasmic organelles. Autophagic flux is …

[PDF][PDF] Modelling cellular systems with PySCeS

BG Olivier, JM Rohwer, JHS Hofmeyr - Bioinformatics, 2005 - academia.edu
The Python Simulator for Cellular Systems (PySCeS) is an extendable research tool for the
numerical analysis and investigation of cellular systems. Availability: PySCeS is distributed …

The reversible Hill equation: how to incorporate cooperative enzymes into metabolic models

JHS Hofmeyr, H Cornish-Bowden - Bioinformatics, 1997 - academic.oup.com
Motivation: Realistic simulation of the kinetic properties of metabolic pathways requires rate
equations to be expressed in reversible form, because substrate and product elasticities are …

Complexity, modeling, and natural resource management

…, HC Biggs, S Blignaut, AG Choles, JHS Hofmeyr… - Ecology and …, 2013 - JSTOR
This paper contends that natural resource management (NRM) issues are, by their very
nature, complex and that both scientists and managers in this broad field will benefit from a …

Metabolic control analysis of moiety‐conserved cycles

JHS HOFMEYR, H Kacser… - European Journal of …, 1986 - Wiley Online Library
1. Moiety‐conserved cycles are metabolic structures that interconvert different forms of a
chemical moiety (such as ATP‐ADP‐AMP, the different forms of adenylate), while the sum of …
