7.9-7.11

  • Construct the wiki website.

7.12

  • Meet with Qi Ouyang and Xiaomeng Zhang
    • Discuss about Reverse Engineering Method and decide to adopt it for designing our project.
    • Decide to search for input-output linear function for making up the shortages of current biosensors.
  • Discuss with Yuheng Lu and Haoqian Zhang
    • Decide to use the tri-node network and the essence of each TF Node is still to be discussed.

7.13

7.14

  • Discuss with Yuheng Lu
    • Decide to use TF as the essence of each TF node.
    • Start to derive the ODEs.
    • Try to search for the right form of equations to describe the combinational regulation of TFs.
  • Paper reading: On schemes of combinatorial transcription logic
    • Try to find the answer to the problem discussed today.

7.14-7.19

  • Continue paper reading and search for some other materials and papers about combinational regulation.

7.20-7.24

  • Derive the ODEs to describe the tri-node network.

7.25-7.30

  • Fix the LINUX system on my laptop and start to familiar with coding under LINUX, study about vim operator, gcc and gdb.

7.31

  • Meet with Xiaomeng Zhang
    • Discuss the equations derived to see whether it can describe our network precisely.
    • Discuss how to derive the equations describing the binding of Hg to MerR dimer.
    • Discuss whether the hypotheses of our equations fit for the real condition.
  • Discuss with Yuheng Lu
    • Develop our equations and discuss about the paper.
    • Find out that the calculation may be too much for our computer that has 16 CPUs in the laboratory so decide to take a more simple form to only consider the combinational regulation instead of also considering the interactions between TFs and RNAP.
