Analysis of Signal Transduction Networks in Michaelis-Menten Equations and S-Systems

Signal transduction networks of biological systems are highly complicated. How to mathematically describe a signal transduction network by systematic approaches so as to further exploit appropriate control strategies is becoming attractive to engineers. In this paper, a mathematical model of signal transduction networks with a simplified structure is proposed and related analyses are performed. Keywords—biological system, S-system, sensitivity, signal transduction network
