Robustness Analysis and Behavior Discrimination in Enzymatic Reaction Networks
Characterizing the behavior and robustness of enzymatic networks with numerous variables and unknown parameter values is a major challenge in biology, especially when some enzymes have counter-intuitive properties or switch-like behavior between activation and inhibition. In this paper, we propose new methodological and tool-supported contributions, based on the intuitive formalism of temporal ...
متن کاملMolecular Engineering of Robustness and Resilience in Enzymatic Reaction Networks
Living systems rely on complex networks of chemical reactions to control the concentrations of molecules in space and time. Despite the enormous complexity in biological networks, it is possible to identify network motifs that lead to functional outputs such as bistability or oscillations. One of the greatest challenges in chemistry is the creation of such functionality from chemical reactions....
متن کاملSensitivity and Robustness in Chemical Reaction Networks
For a wide class of chemical reaction networks, including all those governed by detailed balanced mass-action kinetics, we examine the robustness of equilibrium species concentrations against fluctuations in the overall reactant supply. In particular, we present lower bounds on the individual species-concentration sensitivities that derive from reaction network structure alone, independent of k...
متن کاملRobustness of Expressivity in Chemical Reaction Networks
We show that some natural output conventions for error-free computation in chemical reaction networks (CRN) lead to a common level of computational expressivity. Our main results are that the standard definition of error-free CRNs have equivalent computational power to 1) asymmetric and 2) democratic CRNs. The former have only “yes” voters, with the interpretation that the CRN’s output is yes i...
متن کاملStochastic analysis of biochemical reaction networks with absolute concentration robustness.
It has recently been shown that structural conditions on the reaction network, rather than a 'fine-tuning' of system parameters, often suffice to impart 'absolute concentration robustness' (ACR) on a wide class of biologically relevant, deterministically modelled mass-action systems. We show here that fundamentally different conclusions about the long-term behaviour of such systems are reached ...
