Figure 5.
Effects of promoter leakage on the time-dependent number of gene product molecules, where the leakage rate is set as either λ 0 = 0 (A, B) or λ 0 = 10 (D, E). (A and D) no feedback, where the parameter values are the same as those used in Figure 3(A); (B and E) negative feedback, where the parameter values are the same as those used in Figure 3(B); (C and F) positive feedback, where the leakage rate λ 1 is set as 10 for (F) or as 0 for (C), and the other parameter values are the same as those used in Figure 3(C).
