Specific Plasmid Characterisation for ƒ1

According to the characterization plasmid (see right) and to our modeling, in the exponential phase of growth, at the steady state, the experiment would give us

and at steady-state and in the exponential phase of growth, we expect :

we use this analytical expression to determine the parameters :

find_ƒ1 

function optimal_parameters = find_f1(X_data, Y_data, initial_parameters)
% gives the 'best parameters' involved in f1 by least-square optimisation
 
% X_data = vector of given values of a [aTc]i (experimentally
% controled)
% Y_data = vector of experimentally measured values f1 corresponding of
% the X_data
% initial_parameters = values of the parameters proposed by the literature
%                       or simply guessed
%                    = [beta16, (K13 -> (gamma.K13)/(coefTet.f0)), n13, K12, n12]
 
% Warning : in the global parameters, K20 -> K20/coefTet
 
     function output = expr_pTet(parameters, X_data)
         for k = 1:length(X_data)
                 output(k) = parameters(1) * (1 - ...
                     hill((1 - hill(X_data(k),parameters(4),parameters(5))),parameters(2),parameters(3)));
         end
     end

% options for the function lsqcurvefit

end

Inv_ƒ1 

function quant_aTc = Inv_f1(inducer_quantity)
% gives the quantity of [aTc]i needed to get inducer_quantity of a protein
% throught a gene behind pTet
 
global gamma, f0;
% parameters
 
     function equa = F(x)
         equa = f1( (f0/gamma) , x ) - inducer_quantity;
     end

quant_aTc = fsolve(F,1,options);
 
end

Also, this experiment will enable us to know the expression of ƒ1 :
