From the previous exercises on choosing suitable parameters and ODEs for our models, we have produced some simple models for our systems. The models are all generated using [http://www.mathworks.com/products/simulink/ SIMULINK]. Simulink has proven to be very useful in controlling variable inputs and it allows dynamic modeling. The user interface is friendly and easy to use. | From the previous exercises on choosing suitable parameters and ODEs for our models, we have produced some simple models for our systems.

Deterministic Models
From the previous exercises on choosing suitable parameters and ODEs for our models, we have produced some simple models for our systems. The models are all generated using [http://www.mathworks.com/products/simulink/ SIMULINK]. Simulink has proven to be very useful in controlling variable inputs and it allows dynamic modeling. The user interface is friendly and easy to use.
E7 production system
Modeling of the System shows that Lactose induction is essential to produce E7 and a variation of Lactose input can result in different yields of E7
Lysis Production system
Here we define 1 as a certain threshold e.g. (<250 µM) that when the lysis protein reaches it, lysis in the cell definitely occurs. Although we wish for an absolute AND gate, where 0 will have no lysis production at all, simulation on biological systems shows that such results are impossible. Both addition Fe ions and Ai-2 alone would induce a certain level of lysis production. However when both are available, the lysis protein production would be higher.
In the presence of Ai-2 alone, Lysis will most likely still occur albeit at a slower rate compared to situation when both Fe and Ai-2 are present.
With the addition of iron and Ai-2 together the rate of lysis production is still significantly much higher compared to Ai-2 alone.
Therefore, by giving the logical output ‘1’ as a suitable threshold value of Lysis protein production higher than that of Ai-2 induction alone, we would still be able to obtain an AND gate based on our definition.
