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).
