The initial principle of the system is the expression of three proteins (Cas1, Cas2, and a Retrotranscriptase) and the msr-msd RNA transcript, regulated by an inducible promoter. As such, the Hill equation was implemented to describe said regulated expression, as a function of the concentration of an inductor. A separate term, for basal protein degradation remained. Additionally, enzymatic processes, such as protein complex formation, substrate binding, or enzymatic reactions, are left described by mass-action law. Equations *** to *** correspond to each protein, substrate, and enzymatic complex involved in the E. coding system. <br> | The initial principle of the system is the expression of three proteins (Cas1, Cas2, and a Retrotranscriptase) and the msr-msd RNA transcript, regulated by an inducible promoter.
