Explanation 1
- Arac and Ca:
where
Avogadro number and
is E. coli volume. Thus, we have 
. Then, we get the value of 
.
For the adenylate cyclase, but we assumed that there is less adenylate cyclase in the cell than Arac. Indeed, when there is too much cAMP is inhibits the production of the adenylate cyclase (see reference [6]).
- CRP:
Explanation 2
We don’t know the value of the synthesis rate of adenylate cyclase, but we assume that there is less adenylate cyclase, because if there is a huge amont of adenylate cyclase, there will too much cAMP, and then cAMP will repress the adenylate cyclase production (see reference [6]). For the basal production, we make the same assumption as for Arac.Explanation 3
- Activations by (CRP-cAMP):
when [cAMP] increases. Thus, in this case we could be sure that the concentration of (CRP-cAMP) wouldn’t exceed 10-6 mol/L.
In addition, when [cAMP]≤10-6 mol/L, we also know that because of the value of [CRP], [(CRP-cAMP)] wouldn’t exceed this threshold.
- Activation by Arac*:
Explanation 4
Inspired from Arac. By discussing with the biologists we concluded that Ca is also a stable protein.Explanation 5
By discussing with the biologists, we assumed that there is around 10 times more cAMP out of the cell than inside the cell.Explanation 6
In the reference [6], we have kcat=100 min-1 in vitro. However, by discussing with the biologists, we assumed that in vivo this value was higher.
Quorum sensing parameters
Explanation 1
We assumed that they wouldn’t be glued together, but not too far at the same time.Explanation 2
We work above the threshold, because we want to know the speed of the diffusion when we have a detection.References
