Background state

Description

The background state, Y, is the non-activated or inhibited respiratory state at low flux in relation to the reference state, Z. A metabolic control variable, X, acts on Y (substrate, activator) or is removed from Y (inhibitor) to yield Z.

Abbreviation: Y

Reference: Flux control capacity


MitoPedia methods: Respirometry
