A genome-scale modeling approach to study inborn errors of liver metabolism: toward an in silico patient.

Abstract excerpt

Inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are genetic diseases caused by mutations in enzymes or transporters affecting specific metabolic reactions that cause a block in the physiological metabolic fluxes. Therapeutic treatment can be achieved either by decreasing the metabolic flux upstream of the block or by increasing the flux downstream of the block. The identification of upstream and downstream fluxes however is...
