Specific Plasmid Characterisation for ƒ2

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

F2expr.jpg

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

we use this analytical expression to determine the parameters :

find_ƒ2 

function optimal_parameters = find_f2(X_data, Y_data, initial_parameters)
% gives the 'best parameters' involved in f2 by least-square optimisation
 
% X_data = vector of given values of a [arab]i (experimentally
% controled)
% Y_data = vector of experimentally measured values f2 corresponding of
% the X_data
% initial_parameters = values of the parameters proposed by the literature
%                       or simply guessed
%                    = [betabad, (Kbad -> (gamma.Kbad)/(const.expr(pBad))), nbad, Kara, nara]
 
     function output = expr_pBad(parameters, X_data)
         for k = 1:length(X_data)
                 output(k) = parameters(1) * ( hill( ...
                     (hill(X_data(k), parameters(4), parameters(5))), parameters(2), parameters(3)) );
         end
     end
 
options=optimset('LevenbergMarquardt','on','TolX',1e-10,'MaxFunEvals',1e10,'TolFun',1e-10,'MaxIter',1e4);
% options for the function lsqcurvefit
 
optimal_parameters = lsqcurvefit( @(parameters, X_data) expr_pBad(parameters, X_data), ...
     initial_parameters, X_data, Y_data, 1/10*initial_parameters, 10*initial_parameters, options );
% search for the fittest parameters, between 1/10 and 10 times the initial
% parameters
end

Inv_ƒ2 

function quant_ara = Inv_f2(inducer_quantity)
% gives the quantity of [ara]i needed to get inducer_quantity of a protein
% throught a gene behind pBad
 
     function equa = F(x)
         equa = f2( x ) - inducer_quantity;
     end
 
options=optimset('LevenbergMarquardt','on','TolX',1e-10,'MaxFunEvals',1e10,'TolFun',1e-10,'MaxIter',1e4);
 
quant_ara = fsolve(F,1,options);
 
end

That will give us directly ƒ2([arab])
