Background state

Description

The baseline state, Y, is the non-activated or inhibited respiratory state at baseline flux, which is low in relation to the higher flux in the reference state, Z. The transition from the baseline state to the reference state is a step change. A metabolic control variable, X (substrate, activator), is added to the baseline state to stimulate flux to the level of the reference state. Alternatively, the metabolic control variable, X, is an inhibitor, which is present in the baseline state, Y, but absent in the reference state, Z.

Previously used term

The concept of the flux control factor was introduced with the terms background state, Y, and reference state, Z (Gnaiger 2014 MitoPathways).
