Molecular Reactions



We starts from elementary reactions that are "exhaustives" in the sense that every steps of the system is described. Each of those reactions has to be "mathematically interpreted", in a model (see the model) that accounts for the important phenomenon, and in the same time allows us to find experimentally (see the protocol) every involved parameters.


The System we are studying is the "Core System" (see PRECISERLADRESSE) that we can represent in the following, with all alternatives (pFlhDC/pTet ; TetR/EnvZ/OmpR*) :
The Full System
The interaction surrounded in red (f5) is the one of the detailed example





Complexation Reactions

The double triangle (|><|) is a symbol for complexations :
Compl.jpg means n1 molecules of FlhDC complexed with a pFliA promoter

On the Example

The complexation of FlhDC on pFliL :

Production Reactions

The double triangle (|><|) is a symbol for complexations :
Compl.jpg means n1 molecules of FlhDC complexed with a pFliA promoter

On the Example

The production of FP1 by FlhDC|><|pFliL and FliA|><|pFliL :

Degradation/Dilution Reactions

The double triangle (|><|) is a symbol for complexations :
Compl.jpg means n1 molecules of FlhDC complexed with a pFliA promoter

On the Example

The disappearance of FP1 because of its degradation/dilution :
