“…Nonlinear optimization problems are however difficult to be solved numerically for large scale models (Wortel, Noor, Ferris, Bruggeman, & Liebermeister, 2018), and nonlinear kinetics have been currently accounted for only in small, simplified cell models (Burnap, 2015;Faizi et al, 2018;Jahn et al, 2018;Molenaar et al, 2009). Recent studies have shown how the mathematical formulation of such nonlinear problems can be greatly simplified, potentially facilitating the simulation of larger nonlinear cell models (Dourado & Lercher, 2020;Dourado, Liebermeister, Ebenhöh, & Lercher, 2022).…”
