Analyzing the Functional Properties of the Creatine Kinase System with Multiscale ‘Sloppy’ Modeling

Dependence of PCr diffusion flux on heart rate and mitochondrial membrane permeability to adenine nucleotides.

Prediction of the PCr contribution to high-energy phosphate flux across the mitochondrial outer membrane (Rdiff,PCr), averaged over the cardiac cycle, as a function of (A) heart rate and (B) mitochondrial outer membrane permeability for adenine nucleotides (PSmom,AdN), respectively. Values for (A) Steady state values for Rdiff,PCr as a function of heart rate (B) Steady state values for Rdiff,PCr as a function of PSmom,AdN at fixed heart rate of 220 bpm. We performed simulations for the ensemble of Figure 3, with the heart rate or PSmom,AdN set according to the x-axis. Blue shaded regions depict the 95% confidence interval of the prediction, black solid lines show the prediction for the optimized parameters (see Table 1).
