[Hysteresis, multiplicity of stationary states and auto-oscillations in the reversible flow-through reaction].
A mathematical model has been investigated of a reversible flow-through reaction S1 reversible S2 catalyzed by an olygomeric enzyme E(R,T) the protomers of which undergo concerted conformational transitions R reversible T. The isosteric activation of olygomer E by product S2 binding preferably to protomer active sites in conformation R is shown to be a possible cause of hysteresis in the quasi-stationary input characteristic of the reaction, v (s2). The latter determines the rate law of the reaction, provided the concentration of S2 is a quasi-stationary one. The hysteresis of the characteristic v (s1) gives rise to multiple steady states and self-oscillations in the reaction.
