Fig. 6. Simulation data for the sequential and the synchronous processes. (A) Normalized time series of species count for the forward (0 s ≤ t ≤ 5000 s) and backward (t > 5000 s) processes reported in Δt = 0.1 s time intervals: CSSC in fibers (black), H₂O₂ (blue), and DTT_cyc (red). 1^st dashed line indicates >75% completion of the forward reaction. 2^nd dashed line indicates the addition of DTT which is then converted to DTT_cyc. 3^rd dashed line represents >75% completion of the backward reaction. (B) Normalized count of assembled subunits CSSC_fib (black) and oxidant H₂O₂ (blue) in time reported in Δt = 0.1 s time intervals. 1^st dashed vertical line indicates time of peak amount of CSSC incorporated into fibers. 2^nd dashed line marks the end of the oscillatory stage. 3^rd dashed line marks the near depletion of CSSC fibers.
