twoLayerCascadeK -- an example chemical reaction motif

Description

A combination of two one-site modification cycles in a cascade motif where the phosphotase is not layer specific; that is the same phosphotase acts in both layers [Feliu, Wiuf].

o1 : ReactionNetwork

In the motif Modification of Two-layer Cascade K, the symbols used in the chemical reactions have the following meaning:

S_i and P_i are substrates with i = 0, 1, 2 phosphorylated sites, E is a kinase and F is a phosphotase, X and Y are the intermediate complexes formed by the enzymes E and F, respectively.

To rename species, use substitute(ReactionNetwork,List).
