General formulation of chemical
kinetics (continuum limit)
x˙ = f(x)
= S × v(x)
x is vector of species concentrations
S is the “stoichiometry matrix”, Sij= number of molecules of
species i consumed by reaction j.
v is the “reaction flux vector”, vj is the rate of reaction j. For
an elementary reaction,
v j = k j Õ |S1ij | (x i )
|Sij |
Sij <0

• New approach
 Write model by describing interactions.
 Automatically generate the equations.
Rule-based modeling protocol
1. Define components as structured objects and interactions as
rules.
2. Determine concentrations and rate constants

Conclusions
• Kinetics and stoichiometry of complex formation can
have a profound effect in signal transduction.
• Modeling these effects requires a new approach to
modeling that addresses the issue of combinatorial
complexity.
• Rule-based (or interaction-based) modeling is such
an approach.
• Network-free simulation is a powerful technique that
circumvents combinatorial complexity.
