Chemical reaction networks (CRNs) are fundamental computational models used to study the behavior of chemical reactions in well-mixed solutions. They have been used extensively to model a broad range of biological systems, and are primarily used when the more traditional model of deterministic continuous mass action kinetics is invalid due to small molecular counts. We present a perfect sampling algorithm to draw error-free samples from the stationary distributions of stochastic models for coupled, linear chemical reaction networks. The state spaces of such networks are given by all permissible combinations of molecular counts for each chemical species, and thereby grow exponentially with the numbers of species in the network. To avoid simulations involving large numbers of states, we propose a subset of chemical species such that coupling of paths started from these states guarantee coupling of paths started from all states in the state space and we show for the well-known Reversible Michaelis-Menten model that the subset does in fact guarantee perfect draws from the stationary distribution of interest. We compare solutions computed in two ways with this algorithm to those found analytically using the chemical master equation and we compare the distribution of coupling times for the two simulation approaches.

In this work, we design a type of controller that consists of adding a specific set of reactions to an existing mass-action chemical reaction network in order to control a target species. This set of reactions is effective for both deterministic and stochastic networks, in the latter case controlling the mean as well as the variance of the target species. We employ a type of network property called absolute concentration robustness (ACR). We provide applications to the control of a multisite phosphorylation model as well as a receptor-ligand signaling system. For this framework, we use the so-called deficiency zero theorem from chemical reaction network theory as well as multiscaling model reduction methods. We show that the target species has approximately Poisson distribution with the desired mean. We further show that ACR controllers can bring robust perfect adaptation to a target species and are complementary to a recently introduced antithetic feedback controller used for stochastic chemical reactions.
Comprehensive simulations of the entire biochemistry of cells have great potential to help physicians treat disease and help engineers design biological machines. But such simulations must model networks of millions of molecular species and reactions . The Stochastic Simulation Algorithm (SSA) is widely used for simulating biochemistry, especially systems with species populations small enough that discreteness and stochasticity play important roles. However, existing serial SSA methods are prohibitively slow for comprehensive networks, and existing parallel SSA methods, which use periodic synchronization, sacrifice accuracy. To enable fast, accurate, and scalable simulations of biochemistry, we present an exact parallel algorithm for SSA that partitions a biochemical network into many SSA processes that simulate in parallel. Our parallel SSA algorithm exactly coordinates the interactions among these SSA processes and the species state they share by structuring the algorithm as a parallel discrete event simulation (DES) application and using an optimistic parallel DES simulator to synchronize the interactions. We anticipate that our method will enable unprecedented biochemical simulations.
The Bond Graph approach and the Chemical Reaction Network approach to modelling biomolecular systems developed independently. This paper brings together the two approaches by providing a bond graph interpretation of the chemical reaction network conc ept of complexes. Both closed and open systems are discussed. The method is illustrated using a simple enzyme-catalysed reaction and a trans-membrane transporter.
Autocatalysis underlies the ability of chemical and biochemical systems to replicate. Recently, Blokhuis et al. gave a stoechiometric definition of autocatalysis for reaction networks, stating the existence of a combination of reactions such that the balance for all autocatalytic species is strictly positive, and investigated minimal autocatalytic networks, called {em autocatalytic cores}. By contrast, spontaneous autocatalysis -- namely, exponential amplification of all species internal to a reaction network, starting from a diluted regime, i.e. low concentrations -- is a dynamical property. We introduce here a topological condition (Top) for autocatalysis, namely: restricting the reaction network description to highly diluted species, we assume existence of a strongly connected component possessing at least one reaction with multiple products (including multiple copies of a single species). We find this condition to be necessary and sufficient for stoechiometric autocatalysis. When degradation reactions have small enough rates, the topological condition further ensures dynamical autocatalysis, characterized by a strictly positive Lyapunov exponent giving the instantaneous exponential growth rate of the system. The proof is generally based on the study of auxiliary Markov chains. We provide as examples general autocatalytic cores of Type I and Type III in the typology of Blokhuis et al. In a companion article, Lyapunov exponents and the behavior in the growth regime are studied quantitatively beyond the present diluted regime .
Biochemical reaction networks frequently consist of species evolving on multiple timescales. Stochastic simulations of such networks are often computationally challenging and therefore various methods have been developed to obtain sensible stochastic approximations on the timescale of interest. One of the rigorous and popular approaches is the multiscale approximation method for continuous time Markov processes. In this approach, by scaling species abundances and reaction rates, a family of processes parameterized by a scaling parameter is defined. The limiting process of this family is then used to approximate the original process. However, we find that such approximations become inaccurate when combinations of species with disparate abundances either constitute conservation laws or form virtual slow auxiliary species. To obtain more accurate approximation in such cases, we propose here an appropriate modification of the original method.
