Abstract

Two main mechanisms behind the functioning of biochemical reactions are facilitation and inhibition; these mechanisms are also central for the interaction between biochemical reactions. This observation underlies the theory of reaction systems which is a formal framework for the investigation of biochemical reactions, and especially interactions between them.
