Result:

To have a dropdown for your own team copy over all of the content below. It might be needed to adjust a thing or two. Comments have been added throughout the code what must be changed.

Inspirational websites:

  • [http://javascript-array.com/scripts/simple_drop_down_menu/ Most basic dropdown menu, with no submenu's]
  • [http://jquery.com/ The javascript library used to add effects and optimise the dropdown]
  • [http://www.tyssendesign.com.au/articles/css/centering-a-dropdown-menu/ How to center a ul list effectively]

The dropdown has been created and developed by the KULeuven team.

Memory

Position in the system

Describing the system

Memory BioBrick.jpg

This system must activate the cell death system after one light pulse. As long as there is no light, there is no P2ogr, no CIIP22 and a lot of antimRNA_LuxI. The antimRNA_LuxI blocks the cell death system. When light is turned on OmpF increases. This causes P2ogr and CIIP22 to increase and antimRNA_LuxI to decrease. This activates the system. When light is turned off, the P2ogr concentration is large enough to maintain itself. This way antimRNA doesn't increase. The system stays activated.

Problem

The OmpF promoter is not ideal. When there is no light the transcription rate is still 0.00005. This means that P2ogr will slowly build up, activating the system. In this case the memory is in 0-state when the stationary state isn't reached yet. The 1-state is the stationary state. So the system automatically ends up in state 1 after some time (300s). This can be seen in the figure below.

mem_no_act
Figure: Celldesigner simulation of the memory system. CIIP22(purple), P2ogr(green), AntimRNA(pink).

The system can only stay in 0-state for 300 sec. This makes it completely useless.

Alternative

In the previous system the 0-state isn't actively maintained. It's just 'not stationary state'. So we need to search mathematical system that has 2 stationary states. A possible solution is given below.

Describing the system

alt
Figure: Part representation of alternative system

When this system starts Rep build up because Rep represses the Act promoter better then Act represses the Rep promoter. The Rep concentration stays high and the Act stays low. This is the 0-state. When there is light, the OmpF promoter is activated and the Act concentration is increased. This represses Rep promoter. The Rep concentration decreases and the Act promoter is activated. The Act concentration keeps increasing. When the light pulse ends the Act concentration is high enough to repress the Rep promoter, Act concentration stays high and Rep concentration stays low. This is the 1-state.

Using typical values this system can be tested in CellDesigner.

The OmpF peak causes the Act concentration to rise and the Rep to decrease. The high Act concentration keeps the Rep concentration low. This causes the Act concentration to stay high.

New model

Describing the system

New Mem symbols.PNG

This is the same system as the alternative. The role of act is taken up by cI434 and rep by cIIP22.The output of this system is given in by RNA production that repressed the LuxI production.

New Memory

There is a clear change. The cIIP22 amount drops and the cI434 increases. The high cI434 amount will repress the RNA production. These RNA amount are small and can’t be see on the graph. It might be necessary to increase the RNA production.
