Title:Mathematical analysis of a mechanism for autonomous metabolic oscillations in continuous culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Creators Name:Wolf, J., Sohn, H., Heinrich, R. and Kuriyama, H.
Abstract:Autonomous metabolic oscillations were observed in aerobic continuous culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Experimental investigation of the underlying mechanism revealed that several pathways and regulatory couplings are involved. Here a hypothetical mechanism including the sulfate assimilation pathway, ethanol degradation and respiration is transformed into a mathematical model. Simulations confirm the ability of the model to produce limit cycle oscillations which reproduce most of the characteristic features of the system.
