Abstract
It has been shown that the central metabolic network of Escherichia coli is of the small-world type. In this paper, we present that the metabolic network of glycolysis and TCA cycle as a part of the E. coli metabolism is also a small-world network. We found that the hubs of the studied network are consistent with those found in the complete metabolic network. The evolutionary meaning of this finding is discussed.
