From these graphs, it is possible to see that the model is not really very correct. There is no GFP production at an aTC concentration of 0, when the experiments show a lot of production. This phenomenon is called leakiness and it is something that will need to be dealt with in future models.<br>

Also, the model seems to peak at 3 hours or so, and then slowly decreases. This is not what we want to see. Instead the model should peak at 6 hours and then level off to a steady state.<br>

The next model will hopefully improve on this effort and fix some of the problems.

Today Patrick arrived and began working on getting up to speed on the team's TTL model and creating the TTN model he will eventually be working on.
The model created was similar to that described previously except with the addition of a second tet operon (tetO2):

Since we needed to have the aTc concentration constant both of the models created eliminated the aTc in all the equations and physically set each kinetic constant according to the desired aTc concentration.
