摘要

To understand the functioning of living cells, it is often helpful or even necessaryto exploit inherent timescale disparities and focus on long-termdynamic behaviour. In the present study, we explore this type of behaviourfor the biochemical network of the phosphotransferase system. We showthat, during the slow phase that follows a fast initial transient, the networkreaction rates are partitioned into clusters corresponding to connected partsof the reaction network. Rates within any of these clusters assume essentiallythe same value: differences within each cluster are vastly smaller thanthat from one cluster to another. This rate clustering induces an analogousclustering of the reactive compounds: only the molecular concentrations onthe interface between these clusters are produced and consumed at substantiallydifferent rates and hence change considerably during the slow phase.The remaining concentrations essentially assume their steady-state valuesalready by the end of the transient phase. Further, we find that this clusteringphenomenon occurs for a large number of parameter values and alsofor models with different topologies; to each of these models, there correspondsa particular network partitioning. Our results show that, in spite ofits complexity, the phosphotransferase system tends to behave in a rathersimple (yet versatile) way. The persistence of clustering for the perturbedmodels we examined suggests that it is likely to be encountered in variousenvironmental conditions, as well as in other signal transduction pathwayswith network structures similar to that of the phosphotransferase system.
