The genetic toggle switch model

Description

The derivative function of a simple genetic toggle switch model, an example of a two-dimensional autonomous ODE system.

Usage

toggle(t, y, parameters)

Arguments

t

The value of t, the independent variable, to evaluate the derivative at. Should be a numeric vector of length one.

y

The values of x and y, the dependent variables, to evaluate the derivative at. Should be a numeric vector of length two.

parameters

The values of the parameters of the system. Should be a numeric vector with parameters specified in the following order: α, β, γ.

Details

toggle evaluates the derivative of the following ODE at the point (t, x, y):

dx/dt = -x + α/(1 + yβ), dy/dt = -y + α/(1 + xγ).

Its format is designed to be compatible with ode from the deSolve package.

Value

Returns a list containing the values of the two derivatives at (t, x, y).
