Abstract
Theoretical study of an irreversible enzymic reaction with allosteric product activation reveals that, in small spatial volumes, it can unde rgo a transition to coherent spiking regime characterized by the prese nce of strong correlations between reaction events and the states of i ndividual enzyme molecules.
