Application of the Thermodynamic Model of Cooperative Repression

To recap the derivation from the previous section, the key equation for thermodynamic model of cooperative repression is:

Figure 1. Recap of Thermodynamic Model


In this section, the above model will be explored; specifically, the relationship between the red-colored terms will be studied. First, the relationship between P_bound and the number of F_reg's will show the effect of changing number of binding sites on level of gene expression. Then, the relationship between P_bound and Ks_rd (Dissociation constant of repressor bound to DNA) will show the effect of changing binding strengths of repressors on level of gene expression.
