A large number of complex biochemical reaction networks are included in the gene expression, cell development, and cell differentiation of in vivo cells, among other processes. Biochemical reaction-underlying processes are the ones transmitting information from cellular internal or external signaling. However, how this information is measured remains an open question. In this paper, we apply the method of information length, based on the combination of Fisher information and information geometry, to study linear and nonlinear biochemical reaction chains, respectively. Through a lot of random simulations, we find that the amount of information does not always increase with the length of the linear reaction chain; instead, the amount of information varies significantly when this length is not very large. When the length of the linear reaction chain reaches a certain value, the amount of information hardly changes. For nonlinear reaction chains, the amount of information changes not only with the length of this chain, but also with reaction coefficients and rates, and this amount also increases with the length of the nonlinear reaction chain. Our results will help to understand the role of the biochemical reaction networks in cells.
