Module 1: Delta-Notch (ODE systems, ODEs on a grid)
Author: Fabian Rost
Aim
- learn about ODE models (dynamics in morpheus, steady states analytically)
- develop first models
Description
Basic ODEs
- get to know what students know about ODEs and adjust the module to the pre-knowledge
- give them very simple sketches of biomolecular models, which they should translate into ODEs, e.g.
- could be translated to the following ODEs:
\begin{align} \dot A &= k_1 \\ \dot A &= k_2 A \\ \dot A &= - k_3 A \\ \dot A &= k_4 - k_5 A \end{align}
- discuss those ODEs by
- calculate steady state (do not calculate the stability, to complicated for biologists)
- simulate in morpheus
- typical models for biochemistry/systems biology use hill kinetics:
\begin{align} \dot A &= \frac{\theta^n}{\theta^n + B^n} - k A \end{align}
Delta-Notch
- then discuss the delta-notch sketch with two species
- start with the Collier model
- let them simplify the Collier model sketch (remove the delta or notch species)
- let them develop an ODE for this system (they should be able to do so from the above examples)
- they could come up with something like:
\begin{align} \dot A_1 &= \frac{\theta^n}{\theta^n + A_2^n} - A_1 \\ \dot A_2 &= \frac{\theta^n}{\theta^n + A_1^n} - A_2 \end{align}
- this system is bistable for certain parameter ranges, if the students are advanced they might find this out themselves
- bistable e.g. for $\theta=0.1$, $n=6$,
- if they have this system running in morpheus go spatial and let them simulate the system on a square and hexagonal grid
- then you could also move to shaped cpm cells or even moving cells
- students won't do so much on their own in this session, it is a lot teaching on ODEs (don't be theoretical here, not enough time!) and introducing morpheus
