Scaling analysis exploiting timescale separation has been one of the most important techniques in the quantitative analysis of nonlinear dynamical systems in mathematical and theoretical biology. In the case of enzyme catalyzed reactions,…
We develop an general formalism of single enzyme kinetics in two dimension where substrates diffuse stochastically on a square lattice in presence of disorder. The dynamics of the model could be decoupled effectively to two stochastic…
The concept of limiting step gives the limit simplification: the whole network behaves as a single step. However, in its simplest form this idea is applicable only to the simplest linear cycles in steady states. For such the simplest cycles…
We study a Michaelis-Menten reaction for a single two-state enzyme molecule, whose transition rates between the two conformations are modulated by an harmonically oscillating external force. In particular, we obtain a range of optimal…
In this work we revisit the problem of equilibration in isolated many-body interacting quantum systems. We pay particular attention to quantum chaotic Hamiltonians, and rather than focusing on the properties of the asymptotic states and how…
The method developed by Michaelis and Menten was foundational in the development of our understanding of biochemical reaction kinetics. Extended models of metabolism encapsulated by reaction rate theory, stochastic reaction models, and…
The Michaelis-Menten mechanism is probably the best known model for an enzyme-catalyzed reaction. For spatially homogeneous concentrations, QSS reductions are well known, but this is not the case when chemical species are allowed to…
In the first part of this paper we give a short review of the hierarchy of stochastic models, related to physical chemistry. In the basement of this hierarchy there are two models --- stochastic chemical kinetics and the Kac model for…
In this work we study, at the single molecular level, the thermodynamic and dynamic characteristics of an enzymatic reaction comprising a rate limiting step. We investigate how the stability of the enzyme-state stationary probability…
Recent fluorescence spectroscopy measurements of single-enzyme kinetics have shown that enzymatic turnovers form a renewal stochastic process in which the inverse of the mean waiting time between turnovers follows the Michaelis-Menten…
Equilibrium statistical mechanics is intended to link the microscopic dynamics of particles to the thermodynamic laws for macroscopic quantities. However, the modern statistical theory is faced with significant difficulties, as applied to…
Chemical reaction network theory is a powerful framework to describe and analyze chemical systems. While much about the concentration profile in an equilibrium state can be determined in terms of the graph structure, the overall reaction's…
Reactions with enzymes are critical in biochemistry, where the enzymes act as catalysis in the process. One of the most used mechanisms for modeling enzyme-catalyzed reactions is the Michaelis-Menten (MM) kinetic. In the ODE level, i.e.…
We build a rigorous nonequilibrium thermodynamic description for open chemical reaction networks of elementary reactions. Their dynamics is described by deterministic rate equations satisfying mass action law. Our most general framework…
Relaxation dynamics in reversible catalytic reaction networks is studied, revealing two salient behaviors that are reminiscent of glassy behavior: slow relaxation with log(time) dependence of the correlation function, and emergence of a few…
Dynamic cooperativity in monomeric enzymes is characterized in terms of a non-Michaelis-Menten kinetic behaviour. The latter is believed to be associated with mechanisms that include multiple reaction pathways due to enzymatic…
Classical descriptions of enzyme kinetics ignore the physical nature of the intracellular environment. Main implicit assumptions behind such approaches are that reactions occur in compartment volumes which are large enough so that molecular…
We study the two-dimensional reduction of the Michaelis-Menten reaction of enzyme kinetics. First, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a slow manifold between the horizontal and vertical isoclines. Second, we determine the concavity of…
We consider stochastic reaction networks modeled by continuous-time Markov chains. Such reaction networks often contain many reactions, potentially occurring at different time scales, and have unknown parameters (kinetic rates, total…
Quasi-steady state reductions for the irreversible Michaelis--Menten reaction mechanism are of interest both from a theoretical and an experimental design perspective. A number of publications have been devoted to extending the parameter…
