Hi,

I was wondering how we can translate the following statements into Kappa rules:

Statment 1: A Gene agent 'G' has two transcription factor binding sites 'a' and 'b', and T is the transcription factor. Now, when the site 'a' is occupied by one molecule of T then the other site 'b' will be occupied by another T molecule.

Statement 2: When all the transcription factors are bound to the promoter region or all the sites of 'G' is bounded to the transcription factors, the transcriptional process is initiated and one molecule of mRNA is produced. Let's consider 'M' as the agent for mRNA.

Sincerely

Debdas

This sounds as a property about the reachable species.

It has to be a consequence of the mechanistic interactions (not an assumption about the rule).

The simplest mechanistic assumptions to entail this are:

a) a can by to T only if b if bound to T

b) b can release a bond with T only if a is not bound to T.

assuming that a and b may only bind with T I get:

G(a[•],b[1]),T(x[.]),T(x[1]) -> G(a[2],b[1]),T(x[2]),T(x[1])

G(a[1]),T(x[1]) -> G(a[.]),T(x[.])

G(b[.]),T(x[.]) -> G(b[1]),T(x[1])

G(a[.],b[1]),T(x[1]) -> G(a[.],b[.]),T(x[.])

KaSa will tell you that:

------------------------------------------------------------

* Relational properties:

------------------------------------------------------------

G(a[x.T]) => G(a[x.T],b[x.T])

(If a is bound, then b is bound as well).

Statement 2: When all the transcription factors are bound to the promoter region or all the sites of 'G' is bounded to the transcription factors, the transcriptional process is initiated and one molecule of mRNA is produced. Let's consider 'M' as the agent for mRNA.

(I assume that G has only two sites to be bound to the transcription factor)

G(a[1],b[2]),T(x[1]),T(x[2]),. -> G(a[1],b[2]),T(x[1]),T(x[2]),M()

Cheers.

Jérôme.

What Is MDA SALLY THE LOVE DRUG? Everything To Know About The ‘Love Drug’
MDA (also known as Sally, Sass, and Sassafras) is a psychoactive drug belonging to the amphetamine family. The names Sass and Sassafras refer to the fact that MDA, like MDMA, comes from the oil of the sassafras plant in the illicit manufacturing of the drug.

MDA is similar to MDMA but different in some important ways. It is certainly not as popular as MDMA, one of the most commonly used psychoactive drugs, yet many users appreciate what the MDA experience can offer.

In this article, we will delve into the history of MDA, what kind of drug MDA is, its effects, how it differs from MDMA, the research on the substance, and some harm reduction tips you should keep in mind.
