pubmed:abstractText
A suite of different characteristic times is used to describe the temporal behavior of a metabolic pathway. Here we focus on the 'transit' time, that is the average time it takes for a molecule, entering the steady-state pathway as a substrate, to exit the pathway as a product. We show that metabolic channelling results in dramatic changes in control exerted by pathway enzymes on the transit time. In an 'ideal' pathway a doubling of the enzyme concentrations halves the transit time. In a dynamic channel such an increase can reduce the transit time by a factor of four or more.
