Ingredients for this Simulation Dynamics of response O2 uptake at whole heart level Transport time blood vessels and diffusion Decrease total O2 amount in whole heart Increase O2 uptake heart NMR determined diffusion coefficients Mitochondrial Membrane Permeability Steady state responses isolated mitochondria Enzyme kinetics of two enzymes = Outer Membrane Permeability for ADP = 21 m/s
Our model analysis implies that in rabbit heart at 487 μM/sec ATP hydrolysis, the diffusion flux carried by PCr is 154 μM/sec. This suggests that the PCr shuttle is of minor importance. But what is the function of the two creatine kinase isoforms?
