Figure 8

The effect of the density of cells and multiplicity of infection on the extent and evolution of spatially heterogeneous noise as measured by the Fano Factor of the DDX58 distribution. The effect of varying density is shown in (A). We show results from a simulation with a quarter of the density used in the main text (green circles) and four times the density used in the text (red circles). The black circles denote a simulation without modification from the main text. In (B) the effect of varying the multiplicity of viral infection is shown. The green and red circles denote simulation with an MOI of .5 and 2.0 respectively. This simulation was carried out with the threshold for bound IFNAR to reach half-maximum production of DDX58 set to 10% of the number of bound receptors.
