− | <h2 class="content-subhead">Abstract</h2>
| |
− | <p>
| |
− | This model is created to evaluate the effectiveness of initial design, and offers guidelines on how the system can (or must) be improved. (You can go to <a href="https://2016.igem.org/Team:NUDT_CHINA/Design">PROJECT. page</a> to see more

| |
− | <h2 class="content-subhead">Introduction</h2>
| |
− | <p>
| |
− | We create mathematical models of two aspects of our project, a RCA model and a signal detection model.
| |
− | </p>
| |
− | <h2 class="content-subhead">Assumption and Justification</h2>
| |
− | <h2 class="content-subsub">About model </h2>
| |
− | <p>1. MiRNA is not degraded throughout the reaction process.</p>
| |
− | <p>2. The two fusion proteins of dCas9 and split-HRP fragments have the same ability to combine with the stem-loop structure, and only when two different proteins next to each other, can they have the ability to catalyze substrate and produce signal.</p>
| |
− | <p>3. The number of stem-loop structures in each RCA product is equal under a certain reaction time.</p>
| |
− | <p>4. The enzymatic activity remains unchanged with time under the premise of excessive amount of enzymes or a short-time reaction. </p>
| |
− | <h2 class="content-subsub">About the data </h2>
| |
− | <p>1. The data we obtain from wet-lab experiment are reliable.</p>
| |
− | <p>2. All the results are trustworthy in the process of statistical processing and data calculation.</p>
