Implementation of SBML's Reaction construct.
A reaction represents any transformation, transport or binding process, typically a chemical reaction, that can change the quantity of one or more species. In SBML, a reaction is defined primarily in terms of the participating reactants and products (and their corresponding stoichiometries), along with optional modifier species, an optional rate at which the reaction takes place, and optional parameters.
As with other major object in SBML, Reaction has a mandatory attribute, 'id', used to give the compartment type an identifier. The identifier must be a text string conforming to the identifer syntax permitted in SBML. In SBML Level 2 and Level 3, the reaction 'id' identifier can be used in mathematical formulas elsewhere in an SBML model to represent the rate of that reaction; this usage is explained below. Reaction also has an optional 'name' attribute, of type string
. The 'id' and 'name' must be used according to the guidelines described in the SBML specification.
The species participating as reactants, products, and/or modifiers in a reaction are declared using lists of SpeciesReference and/or ModifierSpeciesReference instances stored in subelements 'listOfReactants', 'listOfProducts' and 'listOfModifiers'. Certain restrictions are placed on the appearance of species in reaction definitions:
The ability of a species to appear as a reactant or product of any reaction in a model is governed by certain flags in that species' definition; see the definition of Species for more information.
Any species appearing in the mathematical formula of the subelement 'kineticLaw' (described below) of a Reaction must be declared in at least one of that Reaction's lists of reactants, products, and/or modifiers. Put another way, it is an error for a reaction's kinetic law formula to refer to species that have not been declared for that reaction.
A reaction can contain up to one KineticLaw object in a subelement named 'kineticLaw'. It defines the speed at which the process defined by the reaction takes place. The description of KineticLaw provides more details about its use. Note that although the inclusion of a KineticLaw object in an instance of a Reaction component is optional, there is no useful default that can be substituted in place of a missing rate expression in a reaction. Moreover, a reaction's rate cannot be defined in any other way in SBML—InitialAssignment, AssignmentRule, RateRule, AlgebraicRule, Event, and other constructs in SBML cannot be used to set the reaction rate separately. Nevertheless, for some modeling applications, reactions without any defined rate can be perfectly acceptable.
Reaction also has a bool attribute named 'reversible' for indicating whether the reaction is reversible. This attribute is optional in SBML Level 2, with a default of true
; it is mandatory in SBML Level 3 (with no default value). To say that a reaction is reversible is to say it can proceed in either the forward or the reverse direction. Although the reversibility of a reaction can sometimes be deduced by inspecting its rate expression, this is not always the case, especially for complicated expressions. Moreover, the need in SBML to allow rate expressions (i.e., KineticLaw) to be optional leads to the need for a separate flag indicating reversibility. Note that labeling a reaction as irreversible is an assertion that the reaction always proceeds in the given forward direction. (Why else would it be flagged as irreversible?) This implies the rate expression in the KineticLaw always has a non-negative value during simulations. Software tools could provide a means of optionally testing that this condition holds. The presence of reversibility information in two places (i.e., the rate expression and the 'reversible' attribute on Reaction) leaves open the possibility that a model could contain contradictory information, but the creation of such a model would be an error on the part of the software generating it.
The Reaction object class has another bool attribute called 'fast'. This attribute is optional in SBML Level 2, with a default of false
; it is mandatory in SBML Level 3 (with no default value). It is used to indicate that a reaction occurs on a vastly faster time scale than others in a system. Readers are directed to the SBML Level 2 Version 4 specification, which provides more detail about the conditions under which a reaction can be considered to be fast in this sense. The attribute's default value is false
. SBML Level 1 and Level 2 Version 1 incorrectly claimed that software tools could ignore this attribute if they did not implement support for the corresponding concept; however, further research in SBML has revealed that this is not true, and 'fast' cannot be ignored if it is set to true
. SBML Level 2 Versions 2–4 therefore stipulate that if a model has any reactions with 'fast' set to true
, a software tool must be able to respect the attribute or else indicate to the user that it does not have the capacity to do so. Analysis software cannot ignore the value of the 'fast' attribute because doing so may lead to different results as compared to a software system that does make use of 'fast'.
In SBML Level 3 Version 1, the Reaction object has an additional optional attribute named 'compartment', whose value must be the identifier of a compartment defined in the enclosing Model object. The 'compartment' attribute can be used to indicate the compartment in which the reaction is assumed to take place. If the attribute is present, its value must be the identifier of a Compartment object defined in the enclosing Model object. Similar to the 'reversible' attribute, the value of the 'compartment' attribute has no direct impact on the construction of mathematical equations for the SBML model. When a kinetic law is given for a reaction, the compartment location may already be implicit in the kinetic law (although this cannot always be guaranteed). Nevertheless, software tools may find the 'compartment' attribute value useful for such purposes as analyzing the structure of the model, guiding the modeler in constructing correct rate formulas, and visualization purposes.
Readers are urged to read the SBML specification for more details about the proper use of Reaction.

Appends the given annotation
to the 'annotation' subelement of this object.
Whereas the SBase 'notes' subelement is a container for content to be shown directly to humans, the 'annotation' element is a container for optional software-generated content not meant to be shown to humans. Every object derived from SBase can have its own value for 'annotation'. The element's content type is XML type 'any', allowing essentially arbitrary well-formed XML data content.
SBML places a few restrictions on the organization of the content of annotations; these are intended to help software tools read and write the data as well as help reduce conflicts between annotations added by different tools. Please see the SBML specifications for more details.
Unlike SBase::setAnnotation(XMLNode annotation) or SBase::setAnnotation(string annotation), this method allows other annotations to be preserved when an application adds its own data.

Appends the given notes
to the 'notes' subelement of this object.
The content of notes
is copied.
The optional SBML element named 'notes', present on every major SBML component type, is intended as a place for storing optional information intended to be seen by humans. An example use of the 'notes' element would be to contain formatted user comments about the model element in which the 'notes' element is enclosed. Every object derived directly or indirectly from type SBase can have a separate value for 'notes', allowing users considerable freedom when adding comments to their models.
The format of 'notes' elements must be XHTML 1.0. To help verify the formatting of 'notes' content, libSBML provides the static utility method SyntaxChecker::hasExpectedXHTMLSyntax(); however, readers are urged to consult the appropriate SBML specification document for the Level and Version of their model for more in-depth explanations. The SBML Level 2 and 3 specifications have considerable detail about how 'notes' element content must be structured.

Every object derived directly or indirectly from type SBase can have a separate value for 'notes', allowing users considerable freedom when adding comments to their models.
The format of 'notes' elements must be XHTML 1.0. To help verify the formatting of 'notes' content, libSBML provides the static utility method SyntaxChecker::hasExpectedXHTMLSyntax(); however, readers are urged to consult the appropriate SBML specification document for the Level and Version of their model for more in-depth explanations. The SBML Level 2 and 3 specifications have considerable detail about how 'notes' element content must be structured.

Whereas the SBML 'notes' subelement is a container for content to be shown directly to humans, the 'annotation' element is a container for optional software-generated content not meant to be shown to humans. Every object derived from SBase can have its own value for 'annotation'. The element's content type is XML type 'any', allowing essentially arbitrary well-formed XML data content.
SBML places a few restrictions on the organization of the content of annotations; these are intended to help software tools read and write the data as well as help reduce conflicts between annotations added by different tools. Please see the SBML specifications for more details.
The annotations returned by this method will be in XML form. LibSBML provides an object model and related interfaces for certain specific kinds of annotations, namely model history information and RDF content.

The optional attribute named 'metaid', present on every major SBML component type, is for supporting metadata annotations using RDF (Resource Description Format). The attribute value has the data type XML ID, the XML identifier type, which means each 'metaid' value must be globally unique within an SBML file. (Importantly, this uniqueness criterion applies across any attribute with type XML ID, not just the 'metaid' attribute used by SBML—something to be aware of if your application-specific XML content inside the 'annotation' subelement happens to use XML ID.) The 'metaid' value serves to identify a model component for purposes such as referencing that component from metadata placed within 'annotation' subelements.

Returns the MIRIAM biological qualifier associated with the given resource.
In MIRIAM, qualifiers are an optional means of indicating the relationship between a model component and its annotations. There are two broad kinds of annotations: model and biological. The latter kind is used to qualify the relationship between a model component and a biological entity which it represents. Examples of relationships include 'is' and 'has part', but many others are possible. MIRIAM defines numerous relationship qualifiers to enable different software tools to qualify biological annotations in the same standardized way. In libSBML, the MIRIAM controlled-vocabulary annotations on an SBML model element are represented using lists of CVTerm objects, and the the MIRIAM biological qualifiers are represented using valueswhose names begin with BQB_
in the interface class libsbml.
This method searches the controlled-vocabulary annotations (i.e., the list of CVTerm objects) on the present object, then out of those that have biological qualifiers, looks for an annotation to the given resource
. If such an annotation is found, it returns the type of biological qualifier associated with that resource as a valuewhose names begin with BQB_

Returns the MIRIAM model qualifier associated with the given resource.
In MIRIAM, qualifiers are an optional means of indicating the relationship between a model component and its annotations. There are two broad kinds of annotations: model and biological. The former kind is used to qualify the relationship between a model component and another modeling object. An example qualifier is 'isDerivedFrom', to indicate that a given component of the model is derived from the modeling object represented by the referenced resource. MIRIAM defines numerous relationship qualifiers to enable different software tools to qualify model annotations in the same standardized way. In libSBML, the MIRIAM controlled-vocabulary annotations on an SBML model element are represented using lists of CVTerm objects, and the the MIRIAM model qualifiers are represented using valueswhose names begin with BQB_

Returns the SBMLDocument object containing this object instance.
LibSBML uses the class SBMLDocument as a top-level container for storing SBML content and data associated with it (such as warnings and error messages). An SBML model in libSBML is contained inside an SBMLDocument object. SBMLDocument corresponds roughly to the class SBML defined in the SBML Level 3 and Level 2 specifications, but it does not have a direct correspondence in SBML Level 1. (But, it is created by libSBML no matter whether the model is Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3.)
This method allows the caller to obtain the SBMLDocument for the current object.

Returns the integer portion of the value of the 'sboTerm' attribute of this object.
Beginning with SBML Level 2 Version 3, objects derived from SBase have an optional attribute named 'sboTerm' for supporting the use of the Systems Biology Ontology. In SBML proper, the data type of the attribute is a string of the form 'SBO:NNNNNNN', where 'NNNNNNN' is a seven digit integer number; libSBML simplifies the representation by only storing the 'NNNNNNN' integer portion. Thus, in libSBML, the 'sboTerm' attribute on SBase has data type int
, and SBO identifiers are stored simply as integers. (For convenience, libSBML offers methods for returning both the integer form and a text-string form of the SBO identifier.)
SBO terms are a type of optional annotation, and each different class of SBML object derived from SBase imposes its own requirements about the values permitted for 'sboTerm'. Please consult the SBML Level 2 Version 4 specification for more information about the use of SBO and the 'sboTerm' attribute.

Readers are directed to the SBML Level 2 Version 4 specification, which provides more detail about the conditions under which a reaction can be considered to be fast in this sense. new int libsbmlcs.Reaction.setId | ( | string | sid | ) |
Sets the value of the 'id' attribute of this Reaction.
The string sid
is copied. Note that SBML has strict requirements for the syntax of identifiers. The following is a summary of the definition of the SBML identifier type
SId
, which defines the permitted syntax of identifiers. We
express the syntax using an extended form of BNF notation:
letter ::= 'a'..'z','A'..'Z' digit ::= '0'..'9' idChar ::= letter | digit | '_' SId ::= ( letter | '_' ) idChar*The characters
(
and )
are used for grouping, the
character *
"zero or more times", and the character
|
indicates logical "or". The equality of SBML identifiers is
determined by an exact character sequence match; i.e., comparisons must be
performed in a case-sensitive manner. In addition, there are a few
conditions for the uniqueness of identifiers in an SBML model. Please
consult the SBML specifications for the exact formulations.

Among other things, this type requires that a value is unique among all the values of type XML ID in an SBMLDocument. Although SBML only uses XML ID for the 'metaid' attribute, callers should be careful if they use XML ID's in XML portions of a model that are not defined by SBML, such as in the application-specific content of the 'annotation' subelement.

The optional SBML element named 'notes', present on every major SBML component type, is intended as a place for storing optional information intended to be seen by humans. An example use of the 'notes' element would be to contain formatted user comments about the model element in which the 'notes' element is enclosed. Every object derived directly or indirectly from type SBase can have a separate value for 'notes', allowing users considerable freedom when adding comments to their models.
The format of 'notes' elements must be XHTML 1.0. To help verify the formatting of 'notes' content, libSBML provides the static utility method SyntaxChecker::hasExpectedXHTMLSyntax(); however, readers are urged to consult the appropriate SBML specification document for the Level and Version of their model for more in-depth explanations.

Sets the value of the 'sboTerm' attribute.
Beginning with SBML Level 2 Version 3, objects derived from SBase have an optional attribute named 'sboTerm' for supporting the use of the Systems Biology Ontology. In SBML proper, the data type of the attribute is a string of the form 'SBO:NNNNNNN', where 'NNNNNNN' is a seven digit integer number; libSBML simplifies the representation by only storing the 'NNNNNNN' integer portion. Thus, in libSBML, the 'sboTerm' attribute on SBase has data type int
, and SBO identifiers are stored simply as integers.
SBO terms are a type of optional annotation, and each different class of SBML object derived from SBase imposes its own requirements about the values permitted for 'sboTerm'. Please consult the SBML Level 2 Version 4 specification for more information about the use of SBO and the 'sboTerm' attribute.

Further, SBML definitions before SBML Level 2 Version 2 incorrectly indicated that software tools could ignore this attribute if they did not implement support for the corresponding concept; however, further research in SBML has revealed that this is not true, and 'fast' cannot be ignored if it is set to true

Unsets the value of the 'id' attribute of this SBML object.
Most (but not all) objects in SBML include two common attributes: 'id' and 'name'. The identifier given by an object's 'id' attribute value is used to identify the object within the SBML model definition. Other objects can refer to the component using this identifier. The data type of 'id' is always either Sid
or UnitSId
, depending on the object in question. Both data types are defined as follows:
letter ::= 'a'..'z','A'..'Z' digit ::= '0'..'9' idChar ::= letter | digit | '_' SId ::= ( letter | '_' ) idChar*
The equality of SId
and UnitSId
type values in SBML is determined by an exact character sequence match; i.e., comparisons of these identifiers must be performed in a case-sensitive manner. This applies to all uses of SId
and UnitSId
.

Unsets the value of the 'metaid' attribute of this SBML object.
The optional attribute named 'metaid', present on every major SBML component type, is for supporting metadata annotations using RDF (Resource Description Format). The attribute value has the data type XML ID, the XML identifier type, which means each 'metaid' value must be globally unique within an SBML file. (Importantly, this uniqueness criterion applies across any attribute with type XML ID, not just the 'metaid' attribute used by SBML—something to be aware of if your application-specific XML content inside the 'annotation' subelement happens to use XML ID.) The 'metaid' value serves to identify a model component for purposes such as referencing that component from metadata placed within 'annotation' subelements.
