Autoinduction

II09 diauxi illust.jpg

Starting the encapsulation process is related to diauxic growth of bacteria under two carbon sources. This is explained further here. 2 models have been discussed in this section and more information about each can be found in the tabs.

Contents

Goal of the models

  • Provide understanding of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diauxie diauxic growth] phenomenon
  • Find out the time taken to consume glucose in the medium to characterize the CRP promoter.

Model 1

  • This is a cybernetic model developed by Kompala et al [1].
  • It is based on Michaelis-Menten assumptions for substrate consumption.

Model 2

Details coming up soon! Still running long simulations...
