We study chemical reaction networks with discrete state spaces, such as the standard continuous time Markov chain model, and present sufficient conditions on the structure of the network that guarantee the system exhibits an extinction event. The conditions we derive involve creating a modified chemical reaction network called a domination-expanded reaction network and then checking properties of this network. We apply the results to several networks including an EnvZ-OmpR signaling pathway in Escherichia coli. This analysis produces a system of equalities and inequalities which, in contrast to previous results on extinction events, allows algorithmic implementation. Such an implementation will be investigated in a companion paper where the results are applied to 458 models from the European Bioinformatics Institutes BioModels database.

Recent work of M.D. Johnston et al. has produced sufficient conditions on the structure of a chemical reaction network which guarantee that the corresponding discrete state space system exhibits an extinction event. The conditions consist of a series of systems of equalities and inequalities on the edges of a modified reaction network called a domination-expanded reaction network. In this paper, we present a computational implementation of these conditions written in Python and apply the program on examples drawn from the biochemical literature, including a model of polyamine metabolism in mammals and a model of the pentose phosphate pathway in Trypanosoma brucei. We also run the program on 458 models from the European Bioinformatics Institutes BioModels Database and report our results.

Many biochemical and industrial applications involve complicated networks of simultaneously occurring chemical reactions. Under the assumption of mass action kinetics, the dynamics of these chemical reaction networks are governed by systems of polyno mial ordinary differential equations. The steady states of these mass action systems have been analysed via a variety of techniques, including elementary flux mode analysis, algebraic techniques (e.g. Groebner bases), and deficiency theory. In this paper, we present a novel method for characterizing the steady states of mass action systems. Our method explicitly links a networks capacity to permit a particular class of steady states, called toric steady states, to topological properties of a related network called a translated chemical reaction network. These networks share their reaction stoichiometries with their source network but are permitted to have different complex stoichiometries and different network topologies. We apply the results to examples drawn from the biochemical literature.
A chemical reaction network (CRN) is composed of reactions that can be seen as interactions among entities called species, which exist within the system. Endowed with kinetics, CRN has a corresponding set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). In Chemical Reaction Network Theory, we are interested with connections between the structure of the CRN and qualitative properties of the corresponding ODEs. One of the results in Decomposition Theory of CRNs is that the intersection of the sets of positive steady states of the subsystems is equal to the set of positive steady states of the whole system, if the decomposition is independent. Hence, computational approach using independent decompositions can be used as an efficient tool in studying large systems. In this work, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a nontrivial independent decomposition of a CRN, which leads to a novel step-by-step method to obtain such decomposition, if it exists. We also illustrate these results using real-life examples. In particular, we show that a CRN of a popular model of anaerobic yeast fermentation pathway has a nontrivial independent decomposition, while a particular biological system, which is a metabolic network with one positive feedforward and a negative feedback has none. Finally, we analyze properties of steady states of reaction networks of specific influenza virus models.
We derive a reduction formula for singularly perturbed ordinary differential equations (in the sense of Tikhonov and Fenichel) with a known parameterization of the critical manifold. No a priori assumptions concerning separation of slow and fast vari ables are made, or necessary.We apply the theoretical results to chemical reaction networks with mass action kinetics admitting slow and fast reactions. For some relevant classes of such systems there exist canonical parameterizations of the variety of stationary points, hence the theory is applicable in a natural manner. In particular we obtain a closed form expression for the reduced system when the fast subsystem admits complex balanced steady states.
We study how the properties of allowing multiple positive nondegenerate equilibria (MPNE) and multiple positive linearly stable equilibria (MPSE) are inherited in chemical reaction networks (CRNs). Specifically, when is it that we can deduce that a C RN admits MPNE or MPSE based on analysis of its subnetworks? Using basic techniques from analysis we are able to identify a number of situations where MPNE and MPSE are inherited as we build up a network. Some of these modifications are known while others are new, but all results are proved using the same basic framework, which we believe will yield further results. The results are presented primarily for mass action kinetics, although with natural, and in some cases immediate, generalisation to other classes of kinetics.
