DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/MoRN/106/">E
 nzyme kinetic reactions as interacting particle systems: Stochastic averag
 ing and parameter inference</a>\nby Wasiur Khuda Bukhsh (University of Not
 tingham\, UK) as part of Seminar on the Mathematics of Reaction Networks\n
 \n\nAbstract\nIn this talk\, I will consider a stochastic model of multist
 age Michaelis--Menten (MM) type enzyme kinetic reactions describing the co
 nversion of substrate molecules to a product through several intermediate 
 species. The high-dimensional\, multiscale nature of these reaction networ
 ks presents significant computational challenges\, especially in statistic
 al estimation of reaction rates. This difficulty is amplified when direct 
 data on system states are unavailable\, and one only has access to a rando
 m sample of product formation times. To address this\, we proceed in two s
 tages. First\, under certain technical assumptions akin to those made in t
 he Quasi-steady-state approximation (QSSA) literature\, we prove a stochas
 tic averaging principle that yields a lower-dimensional model. Next\, for 
 statistical inference of the parameters of the original MM reaction networ
 k\, we develop a mathematical framework involving an interacting particle 
 system (IPS) and prove a propagation of chaos result that allows us to wri
 te a product-form likelihood function. The novelty of the IPS-based infere
 nce method is that it does not require information about the state of the 
 system and works with only a random sample of product formation times. We 
 provide numerical examples to illustrate the efficacy of the theoretical r
 esults. Preprint: https://arxiv.org/abs/2409.06565\n
