Unfortunately neither the turnover number nor the ''vmax'' for this organism could be found.  Also the in depth research of the enzyme GAP-DH on the maximum rate of the reaction gave no satisfactory results – the only found value of vmax was the one from the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophile and was obtained from the method, where the GAP-DH was inhibited by stress reagents.  Hence, there are two possible solutions how the model could be assessed:

Modelling - Intermediates

Intermediates

The electrons that will be eventually transferred to the anode are generated during the biochemical processes within the bacterial cell. The central pathway in E.coli is the glycolysis and one of its key enzymes is the [http://www.genome.jp/dbget-bin/www_bget?ec:1.2.1.12 Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAP-DH)]. As part of this reaction NAD+ is reduced to NADH+H+. Thus this intermediate takes part in the electron flow needed for the generation of electricity. The resulting amount of the intermediate NADH+H+ can be calculated with the modeled Michaelis-Menten equation:


Bielefeld-germany-model-inter-reaction1.PNG


where vmax is the maximum rate achieved by the system and Km describes the substrate concentration at which reaction rate is half-maximal.


Further vmax can be also represented as:


Bielefeld-germany-model-inter-bild2.PNG


where kcat represents the rate-limiting turnover number and E0 represents the enzyme concentration. The resulting equation, alternative to (1), would be:


Bielefeld-germany-model-inter-reaction2.PNG


The data of the kinetics were obtained from the internet database [http://www.brenda-enzymes.org/php/result_flat.php4?ecno=1.2.1.12 BRENDA]. For E.coli the Km value for the NAD as a substrate is 0.045 for the wild-type enzyme. The kcat value for the E.coli for the wild-type is 0.268[1/s] ([http://abbs.oxfordjournals.org/content/44/6/527.long1 Errafiy, Soukri , 2012]).

Simulation

The values kcat and Km obtained as mentioned above were applied in the simulation of the production of NADH. The start concentration of the enzyme GAP-DH was set at 10 µM and the simulation time span at 10 sec. The simulation was performed for five different NAD+ concentrations: 10 µM, 50 µM, 100 µM and 500 µM . The MATLAB source code can be obtained as .m file here. Exemplary curves of the concentration change over time for the start NAD+ concentration of 10 µM and 1 M are shown in figure 1 and figure 2 respectively. The curves showing the concentration change of the product NADH for all simulated start concentration of substrate are shown in the Figure 3.

Figure 2: The curve of concentration change for the substrate NAD+ and product NADH. Start concentration of substrate was set at 1 M
