(a) Comparison of signaling and inhibition characteristics predicted by our network simulations for wildtype and mutant systems under different conditions; Del stands for the deletion mutant del L723–P729 ins S. Concentrations of Akt-(p) or ERK-(p) are used to indicate the downstream effects of receptor signaling. EC50 values are calculated as a measure of the degree to which signals downstream are inhibited by the ATP analogue, erlotinib. (b) Kinetic rate constants or species concentrations constituting the top three principal components for network hyper-sensitivity calculated through global sensitivity analysis: kf, turnover for phosphorylation; (•) denotes bound complex; the square brackets represent concentrations
