Global parameters

The Vmax value in the paper "Modeling cancer glycolysis" is given in $U \times \text{(mg total cellular protein)}^{-1}$ unit . To homogenize the units it is then converted back to $\frac{mM}{min}$ by multiplying $U \times \text{(mg total cellular protein)}^{-1}$ with 65 as the HeLa cell was incubated in $65 \frac{\text{mg protein}}{\text{mL cell volume}}$.
