Motivations

  • This part is driving the molecular events associated with the predator in the Lotka-Volterra model.
  • This part is supposed to interface with the prey-construct.
  • To satify the Lotka-Volterra dynamic of the predator, this part has to fullfil two properties:
    • promote the growth of the predator-molecule according to the prey and predator population.
    • kill the prey-molecule according to the population of prey and predator
    • enable the natural death of the predator-molecule

Open issues

  • Getting linear relationship is going to be challenging in a biological system.
  • Saturation in the response may have to be taken into account (characterized and defined).
