(A) Effect of the biophysical feedback on the control of the steady-state Inline graphic The four marginal distributions P(Inline graphic), obtained from 106 random parameter sets in which all seven enzyme rates Vcell,Enzyme are varied, show a reduction of the probability of inviable states with Inline graphic < −1/6 nm−1. In the absence of feedback, we fix Ka,MGS at the reference value of Ka,MGS (Inline graphic) shown in Fig. 3 B (×). MGS is modeled to have a 19-residue α-helix (□), DGS is modeled with a 19-residue α-helix (○), both MGS and DGS are modeled with 19-residue α-helices (▵). (B) The cumulative probability that the steady state forms a bilayer (Inline graphic) as a function of the logarithmic variation k.
