Stochastic models of intracellular processes are subject of intense research today. For homogeneous systems, these models are based on the Chemical Master Equation, which is a discrete stochastic model. The Chemical Master Equation is often solved numerically using Gillespie’s exact stochastic simulation algorithm. This thesis studies the performance of another exact stochastic simulation strategy, which is based on the Random Time Change representation, and is more efficient for sensitivity analysis, compared to Gillespie’s algorithm. This method is tested on several models of biological interest, including an epidermal growth factor receptor model.

AbstractQuantitative and qualitative nature of chemical noise propagation in a network of chemical reactions depend crucially on the topology of reaction networks. Multisite reversible phosphorylation-dephosphorylation of target proteins is one such recurrently found topology in various cellular networks regulating key functions in living cells. Here we analytically calculated the stochasticity in multistep reversible chemical reactions by determining variance of phosphorylated species at the steady state using linear noise approximation. We investigated the dependence of variance on the rate parameters in the reaction chain and the number of phosphorylation sites on the species. Assuming a quasi steady state approximation on the multistep reactions, originating from the disparity in time scales in the network, we propose a simulation scheme for coupled chemical reactions to improve the computational efficiency of stochastic simulation of the network. We performed case studies on signal transduction cascade and positive feedback loop with bistability to show the accuracy and efficiency of the method.
