Figure 8From: Stochastic simulations of the tetracycline operonComparison of the wild type tet operon with the operon lacking the promoter tetP R1 . Average number of Tc (Figure 8a), TetR (Figure 8b), TetR2 (Figure 8c) and TetA (Figure 8d) molecules of the wild type (wt) tet operon as well as of the tet operon which lacks the promoter tetPR 1. At time of 5 hours, a pulse of 400 Tc molecules is administered to each cell. The behavior of the system appears to be the same with and without the promoter tetPR 1.Back to article page
