Light Operon

Introduction

Modeling Results

The different states of Yf1 are being hit with different intensities of light, producing alternating results unique to the state.

  1. Starting concentration of 95 FixJ molecules (Gillespie)
  2. (Left) Constant light at 0.4291 micromoles per square meter; (Right) Constant light at 4.291 micromoles per square meter
    yDD (Dark-Dark state); yDL/LD (Dark-Light state); yLL (Light-Light state)

  3. Starting concentration of 948 FixJ molecules (Gillespie)
  4. (Left) Constant light at 0.4291 micromoles per square meter; (Right) Constant light at 4.291 micromoles per square meter
    yDD (Dark-Dark state); yDL/LD (Dark-Light state); yLL (Light-Light state)


  5. Comparison to deterministic models
  6. (Left) Starting concentration of 95 FixJ molecules; (Right) Starting concentration of 948 FixJ molecules
    yDD (Dark-Dark state); yDL/LD (Dark-Light state); yLL (Light-Light state)
