A convergent reaction-diffusion master equation.
The reaction-diffusion master equation (RDME) is a lattice stochastic reaction-diffusion model that has been used to study spatially distributed cellular processes. The RDME is often interpreted as an approximation to spatially continuous models in which molecules move by Brownian motion and react by one of several mechanisms when sufficiently close. In the limit that the lattice spacing approa...
متن کاملReaction rates for a generalized reaction-diffusion master equation.
It has been established that there is an inherent limit to the accuracy of the reaction-diffusion master equation. Specifically, there exists a fundamental lower bound on the mesh size, below which the accuracy deteriorates as the mesh is refined further. In this paper we extend the standard reaction-diffusion master equation to allow molecules occupying neighboring voxels to react, in contrast...
متن کاملReaction-diffusion master equation, diffusion-limited reactions, and singular potentials.
To model biochemical systems in which both noise in the chemical reaction process and spatial movement of molecules is important, both the reaction-diffusion master equation (RDME) and Smoluchowski diffusion-limited reaction (SDLR) partial differential equation (PDE) models have been used. In previous work we showed that the solution to the RDME may be interpreted as an asymptotic approximation...
متن کاملTaking the reaction-diffusion master equation to the microscopic limit
The reaction-diffusion master equation (RDME) is commonly used to model processes where both the spatial and stochastic nature of chemical reactions need to be considered. We show that the RDME in many cases is inconsistent with a microscopic description of diffusion limited chemical reactions and that this will result in unphysical results. We describe how the inconsistency can be reconciled i...
متن کاملThe Reaction-Diffusion Master Equation as an Asymptotic Approximation of Diffusion to a Small Target
The reaction-diffusion master equation (RDME) has recently been used as a model for biological systems in which both noise in the chemical reaction process and diffusion in space of the reacting molecules is important. In the RDME space is partitioned by a mesh into a collection of voxels. There is an unanswered question as to how solutions depend on the mesh spacing. To have confidence in usin...
