Figure 3.
Time resolved siRNA-mediated target knockdown with respect to initial siRNA concentration at three different levels of basal target mRNA. In all six plots, target concentration (in percent of basal target level) is plotted against reaction time (in h) and logarithmically-scaled initial siRNA concentration (in copies/cell). Simulation results of the dissociative model in the first column are presented in parallel with the ones of the associative model in the second column. Row-wise, absolute basal target levels increase by 10-fold from 10 to 100 to 1000 copies/cell.
