Simulations are exactly as described for Video 7 but unspecified membrane components are all of the same type (ordered in this case). The positions of receptors (circles), kinases (green squares), and phosphatases (magenta triangles) are shown at 1 ms intervals (representing 1000 simulation updates). Inactive receptors are shown in blue and activated (phosphorylated) receptors are shown in red. Symbols are drawn larger than the pixels that they represent for clarity. The field is turned on at time = 0 but does not impact the organization of components. The time trace shown at the bottom is redrawn from Figure 4c.
