Figure 9

Dependence of promoter strength on gene length and plasmid number. The full set of simulations yields promoter strengths, k_on, as a function of four input parameters (gene length, plasmid number, mRNA half-life, and cell doubling time). Here, we fix the doubling time at 30 minutes and the mRNA half-life at 8 minutes, and plot k_on as a function of the two remaining parameters: gene length and plasmid copy number.
