Modeling

Available software

People used to design computational programs that would automaticall locate bacterialribosome binding sittes, various techniques were used[] including neural networks[]. However the software was capable only of finding the sequence and didn't give any information about the strength of RBS. In 2009 Nature issue the revolutionary software has been described[]. RBS calculator allows prediction of RBS strength, moreover it designs RBS of desired strength for specific gene sequence. In 2010 another RBS strength predictor was created[].

Mathematics behind modeling
A mathematical mofdel for transcription initiation has been clearly describrd by ___ in 2010. Upon similare models are based the current predictors. Model contains lots of mathematics but it is based on biological common sense:
We all know that for transcription initiation the ribosome has to be recruted to the RNA.
First there must be accesible RNA molecue
Then the ribosome must
