How to create a user-defined kinetic type?
You can also assign a user-defined kinetic law to a reaction. To do this, go through the following steps: • Click the button Kinetic Law Creator on the icon bar. Give a name and write down the formula of the kinetic law in the text box. Elements of the formula will be species and parmeters defined in the model, linked with mathematical operators (+, -, *, /). Notice that there are certain rules in representing species in the user-defined kinetic law: users can only use substrate, product and amplifier to represent reactants, products and enzymes which are contained in the formula. Other names won’t be accepted by BioNessie. There are no such constraints on parameters: users can give any names to parameters included in the formula. • Check the box Reversible Reaction if the reaction for which you are going to assign the user-defined kinetic law is reversible, otherwise check the box Inreversible Reaction.
