Functional Modules, Structural Topology, and Optimal Activity in Metabolic Networks
Figure 3
Modularity in the metabolic reconstruction for R. etli.
The structural modules identified in the entire metabolic reconstruction are shown in panels (A) and (B).The color bar on the right indicates the different modules identified by their topological closeness in their components. The functional compositions of each structural module are shown in (C). In panel (D) we present the relative increment (white) or decrement (black) on concentration for those metabolites experimentally detected along the nine functional modules.
