  1. The parameter names follow a naming convention. The rate constants for phosphorylation events is a k with a subscript starting with a protein specification (R:RSK1, M:MITF or S:STAT3), followed by a specification of a phosphorylation site (p73, p409 for MITF and p for STAT3) and finalized with a ' + ' for phosphorylation rate constants and ' - ' for de-phosphorylation rate constants. The association and dissociation rate constants is a k with a subscript starting with a protein specification followed by a phosphorylation state specification, and finalized with ' ass ' or ' diss ' respectively. The name of the parameters denoting the production or degradation rates start with a p or a γ respectively, and ends with a specification of the protein (and eventually phosphor state). The two constants ERKp and JAKp, represent the amounts of phosphorylated ERK and JAK, respectively. These are altered to emulate signalling through the respective pathways. 'k u ' is the ubiquitination rate constant.
