Description
This thesis presents a thorough mathematical investigation of the important phenomenon of Ultrasensitivity in enzyme-mediated chemical reaction networks. The study considers several novel chemical reaction networks, and develops a robust new nomenclature that allows Ultrasensitivity to be analysed in precise quantitative terms. This investigation encompasses both stochastic and deterministic simulations, as well as analytical methods, which together provide a comprehensive understanding of ultrasensitivity-promoting mechanisms in simple chemical reaction networks.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
