Finding Parameters

This program aims at fill [[Team:Paris/Modeling/Bibliography|this data bank], from experimental data obtained by our wet lab.

We are looking for constants involved in Hill functions :

  • Inducer x on py : formation rate of y = b*(x^n/(K^n + x^n))
  • Inhibitor x on py : formation rate of y = b*((K^n)/(K^n + x^n))

With following chemical interpretations :

  • b = "quantity of DNA multiplied by the transduction rate"
  • (K^n) = "activation constant : dissociation constant of the fixation of x on py"
  • n = "stoechiometric coef. of x in the fixation of x on py"
