generate_kinetics()
samples the kinetics of genes in the feature network for which
the kinetics have not yet been defined.
kinetics_default()
is used to configure parameters pertaining this process.
kinetics_random_distributions()
will do the same, but the distributions are also
randomised.
generate_kinetics(model)
kinetics_default()
kinetics_random_distributions()
A dyngen intermediary model for which the feature network has been generated with generate_feature_network()
.
A dyngen model.
To write different kinetics settings, you need to write three functions
with interface function(feature_info, feature_network, cache_dir, verbose)
.
Described below are the default kinetics samplers.
sampler_tfs()
mutates the feature_info
data frame by adding the following columns:
transcription_rate
: the rate at which pre-mRNAs are transcribed,
in pre-mRNA / hour. Default distribution: U(1, 2).
translation_rate
: the rate at which mRNAs are translated into proteins,
in protein / mRNA / hour. Default distribution: U(100, 150).
mrna_halflife
: the half-life of (pre-)mRNA molecules, in hours.
Default distribution: U(2.5, 5).
protein_halflife
: the half-life of proteins, in hours.
Default distribution: U(5, 10).
splicing_rate
: the rate at which pre-mRNAs are spliced into mRNAs,
in reactions / hour. Default value: log(2) / (10/60), which corresponds to a half-life of 10 minutes.
independence
: the degree to which all regulators need to be bound for transcription to occur (0), or
whether transcription can occur if only one of the regulators is bound (1).
sampler_nontfs()
samples the transcription_rate
, translation_rate
,
mrna_halflife
and protein_halflife
from a supplementary file of Schwannhäusser et al.,
2011, doi.org/10.1038/nature10098. splicing_rate
is by default the same as in sampler_tfs()
.
independence
is sampled from U(0, 1).
sampler_interactions()
mutates the feature_network
data frame by adding the following columns.
effect
: the effect of the interaction; upregulating = +1, downregulating = -1.
By default, sampled from -1, 1 with probabilities .25, .75.
strength
: the strength of the interaction. Default distribution: 10^U(0, 2).
hill
: the hill coefficient. Default distribution: N(2, 2) with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 10.
