Example 8.1.
In Eqs. (8.7)-(8.9), there are a total of 9 metabolites. Thus, S will
have rows
[
S
] i
with each corresponding to a C i , and columns
[
S
] j with each cor-
responding to an equation in the form of Eq. ( 8.6 ). Letting
C 1 =
GLC
,
C 2 =

ADP
C 3 =
G6P
,
C 4 =
ATP
,
C 5 =

,
C 7 =
PEP

C 8 =
Pyr

and
H + ,
C 9 =

Exercise 8.2. Use Eqs. ( 8.8 ) and ( 8.9 ) to fill in the remaining two columns of the
9 by 3 stoichiometric matrix S for the system given by (8.7)-(8.9):

Exercise 8.3.
a. The stoichiometric matrix S you found in Exercise 8.2 corresponds to a system of
only some of the equations needed to represent the full glycolysis network. What
would be the shape of the stoichiometric matrix for the full glycolysis network?
