Figure 4.
The effect of intracellular noise intensity D on the synchronized switching in multicellular toggle switch systems coupled by quorum sensing. (a) Quantified by the order parameter R; (b) Shown by the amplification factor η; (c) Displayed by the time evolution of LacI concentrations of five cells for 100 cells at D = 0.05, where intracellular noise-induced synchronized switching is clearly observed.
