In this paper, we study a coupled two-cell Schnakenberg model with homogenous Neumann boundary condition, i.e.,

$\left\{ \begin{gathered} -d_1Δ u=a-u+u^2v+c(w-u),&\text{ in } Ω, \\-d_2Δ v=b-u^2v,&\text{ in } Ω , \\-d_1Δ w=a-w+w^2z+c(u-w),&\text{ in } Ω, \\-d_2Δ z=b-w^2z,&\text{ in } Ω, \\\dfrac{\partial u}{\partial ν}=\dfrac{\partial v}{\partial ν}=\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial ν}=\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial ν}=0, &\text{ on } \partialΩ.\end{gathered} \right.$

We give a priori estimate to the positive solution. Meanwhile, we obtain the non-existence and existence of positive non-constant solution as parameters

$ d_1, d_2, a$

and b changes.

Keywords: Schnakenberg model, two-cell, pattern formation, a priori estimate, steady state, non-existence and existence.
