Abstract
The mathematical models of plant metabolic pathways are discussed. Kinetic modeling is the most detailed mathematical description of a metabolic network and constitutes an important branch in the growing fields of systems biology. This model is based on non-stationary diffusion equations containing a nonlinear term related to the Michaelis-Menten kinetics. An analytical expression of metabolic concentration was obtained for all values of parameters using new approach to Homotopy perturbation method. Our analytical results were compared with simulation results. Satisfactory agreement with simulation data is noted.
