Hi,

I have a molecule A. Molecule A can undergo a system of reactions as seen in the figure below.

Basically it can undergo a network of reactions (a custom combination of parallel and consequetive reversible steps ending with a final irreversible step). I have the rate constants (both forward and reverse for reversible steps) for all these steps.

Tilll now, i have been manually coding the time evolution of systems like these, using a system of first order coupled linear differential equations (solving a master equation). But the networks are getting complicated.
Solving this would get easier if I could use a MATLAB app which would help me build a network without manually coding it in.
Recently I came across this "Mass Action Kinetics" module in matlab. Does this module have the capability to solve systems like this? Is there anything else MATLAB has that can help me.

Thanks!Hi,
