Note that the three constitutively produced proteins R, S and L exist in two different forms: as free proteins and in complexes they build with I<sub>R</sub>, I<sub>S</sub> and I<sub>L</sub>, respectively. The total amount of protein is denoted with a subscript <i>t</i> (e.g. R<sub>t</sub>) in the above formulas. The amount of protein existing as complex is denoted with a superscript * (e.g. R*). The difference is the amount of free protein (e.g. R<sub>t</sub> - R*).

In this new formulation of the model equations, the characterization is more amenable to human interpretation (although equivalent to  the previous formuation). The promoters are now characterized by their ''maximum transcription rate'' (c<sub>i</sub><sup>max</sup>) and the ''basic production'' (a<sub>X</sub>), which gives the 'leakage' if the gene is fully inhibited. Note that in the given mathematical formulation the ''basic production'' is specified as a percentage of the ''max. transcription rate'' and is therefore unitless.

The max. transcription rate is given ''per gene'' (as agreed with Sven during the meeting at Sep 20.). This means that to get the total transcription rate we need to multiply with the number of gene copies per cell which is represented as l<sup>lo</sup>/l<sup>hi</sup> in the model equations.

Comments

Note that the three constitutively produced proteins lacI, tetR and luxR exist in two different forms: as free proteins and in complexes they build with IPTG, aTc and AHL, respectively.

In this new formulation of the model equations, the characterization is more amenable to human interpretation (although equivalent to the previous formuation). The promoters are now characterized by their maximum transcription rate (cimax) and the basic production (aX), which gives the 'leakage' if the gene is fully inhibited. Note that in the given mathematical formulation the basic production is specified as a percentage of the max. transcription rate and is therefore unitless.

The max. transcription rate is given per gene (as agreed with Sven during the meeting at Sep 20.). This means that to get the total transcription rate we need to multiply with the number of gene copies per cell which is represented as llo/lhi in the model equations.
