We measure metabolic fluxes (turnover rates) in metabolic pathways by applying extensive computer analysis to magnetic resonance data

[Afbeelding product]

Analysis of aerobic metabolic pathways, of key importance for biological energy turnover. Using this model six metabolic parameters can be quantitated from nine NMR multiplet peaks.  These metabolic parameters are all obtained from one NMR spectrum from one tissue sample.

Advantages

Metabolism quantitated
Several metabolic pathways simultaneously analyzed
No radioactive tracers needed.
Enzymes in the pathway need not have to be characterized
Useful for genomics studies of metabolism even if gene products are unknown
