Deskripsi

Reversible bimolecular chemical reactions are elementary chemical reactions. This paper investigated this reaction type based on DNA strand displacement, and proposed degradation, catalysis, and annihilation reactions along with the synchronization reaction modules. DNA reaction modules were compared with ideal reaction modules, and relative reaction rates analyzed using the Lotka-Volterra oscillator as an example to demonstrate the validity of these reaction modules. An arbitrary chemical reaction network was employed to numerically simulate and predict synchronization between two Lotka-Volterra oscillators.
