Monte Carlo simulation of biospecific interactions
Numerical simulations of the stochastic time evolution of biospecific interactions are described and show that when molecular populations are large, time course predictions match those obtained using a deterministic expression. When population size is decreased the effects of stochastic noise become apparent. The significance of stochastic noise in sensitive binding-based assay systems suggests an immediate need for models of this type.
