[BiO BB] cell simulation

[John G. Hoey, Ph.D.]

Cellular metabolism is extraordinarily complex.  Reversible/nonreversible reactions are only a microcosm of the variables you will have to contend with in developing a "model" such as this.  I believe you will have little trouble finding numbers to plug into your algoritm for any number of reactions involved in cellular respiration for instance.  However, as a cell biologist I would be very skeptical of cell simulation software that attempted to analyze any more than a couple of these reactions simultaneously.

hello ,
i am writing algorithm for a cell simulation
software.

1)
we know complex reactions are involved in cell
metabolism.
many reversible rxns, non reversible rxns are
involved.
to calculate the concentration of each component at a
given instant we have to use complex differential
equations.
if someone can suggest me some websites or books to
refer for such calculations plz do it.

2)
i have taken my reference cell as E.Coli . where can
i get the complete set of metabolism rxn involved in
EColi .(along with 
the values of equlibrium constants)


plese guide me if possible
