Chapter 25. Enzyme kinetics 265As for excitations and oscillations, these certainly have important roles in biologicalfunction, in particular, in generating signals and providing responses to changes, for instanceof the concentrations of certain compounds. As such compound concentrations can enter thesegments we have in the roles of A-agents, they can influence the behaviour of the dynamics,for instance trigger oscillations or in other cases stabilise the system.Expressions of the kind we have considered here are suggested in several, also quitedifferent applications. They are used by Lefever, Goldbeter and their collaborators at Brusselsby describing certain chemical networks and possible oscillations, for instance in theglycolytic process (see Goldbeter, 1996, 2002). They are also used in various situationstogether with gene expressions and gene regulation. We add that expressions of the sametype appear in the Fitzhugh–Nagumo equations for generating neural signals. We take thisup in a later chapter in Part VIII.
