Before revision:  Using the proposed criterion, we systematically derive a list of motifs of chemical reaction networks that can show small-number effects, which includes motifs showing emergence of the power law and the bimodal distribution observable in a mesoscopic regime with respect to molecule number . Motif analysis revealed that autocatalytic reactions are essential for the emergence of the small-number effect .
