Timer Plus Sumo


In this section the system of Figure 1 is modeled. The structure of the timer is very similar version of the timer compared to the construct of iGEM TU Delft team 2009. Here the input is changed to a T7 promoter and the output to Ulp-1. Furthermore, the Ulp-1 cleaves off the SUMO from the peptide combined with the SUMO.

Differential Equations

The above circuit can be represented by the following differential equations. We assume a binary behavior of the T7 promoter. In the presence of IPTG, the T7 promoter will be active. So, we make the assumption that the T7 is binary variable with two possible states: either active 1 or inactive 0.

Simulation


Initial Conditions

TET and ULP must be set equal to zero (or a numerical equivalent). For CI the steady state value is assumed as a starting condition as this is expressed before activation.
