Nuclear trapping model. (A and B) Nuclear Bicoid (solid blue line) and free Bicoid (dashed red line) as a function of time: (A) δfree = 0.001, δnuc = 0.001; (B) δfree = 0, δnuc = 0.001. (C) Normalized concentration of Bicoid in a cycle 12 embryo: free Bicoid for diffusion-only model (blue line), free Bicoid for the nuclear dynamics model (red line), nuclear Bicoid (asterisks), and experimental results from the FlyEx database (24–27) (circles).
