Short description
Curto1998 - purine metabolism

This is a purine metabolism model that is geared toward studies of gout.

The model uses Generalized Mass Action (GMA; i.e. power law) descriptions of reaction rate laws.

Such descriptions are local approximations that assume independent substrate binding.

This model is described in the article:

Abstract:

Experimental and clinical data on purine metabolism are collated and analyzed with three mathematical models. The first model is the result of an attempt to construct a traditional kinetic model based on Michaelis-Menten rate laws. This attempt is only partially successful, since kinetic information, while extensive, is not complete, and since qualitative information is difficult to incorporate into this type of model. The data gaps necessitate the complementation of the Michaelis-Menten model with other functional forms that can incorporate different types of data. The most convenient and established representations for this purpose are rate laws formulated as power-law functions, and these are used to construct a Complemented Michaelis-Menten (CMM) model. The other two models are pure power-law-representations, one in the form of a Generalized Mass Action (GMA) system, and the other one in the form of an S-system. The first part of the paper contains a compendium of experimental data necessary for any model of purine metabolism. This is followed by the formulation of the three models and a comparative analysis. For physiological and moderately pathological perturbations in metabolites or enzymes, the results of the three models are very similar and consistent with clinical findings. This is an encouraging result since the three models have different structures and data requirements and are based on different mathematical assumptions. Significant enzyme deficiencies are not so well modeled by the S-system model. The CMM model captures the dynamics better, but judging by comparisons with clinical observations, the best model in this case is the GMA model. The model results are discussed in some detail, along with advantages and disadvantages of each modeling strategy.

Reproduction of figure 2b of the original publication, showing the time course of hypoxanthine of the GMA model in response to a PRPP pulse. As mentioned in the article, the concentration of PRPP was increased 10 fold from 5 to 50 microM. There seems to be a typo in the articles figure caption, as the increase of PRPP takes place at t =0 not 10. The simulation was performed using Copasi 4.4 b.26.
