Development of Our Kinetic Model

moving on, we have developed another kinetic model using the results of the thermodynamic model. gardner = effect of hill coeff on bistability of a system (bifurcation region) new model = effect of various parameters on bistability (highlight and number Kd, pr_Str, basal rate.

as mentioned before, key assumption is is (du/dt , dv/dt = proportional to p_bound)
