eCommon modelling strategies
detailed description: (1) positional information of every molecule (2) interaction with others molecules
only suitable for (very) small subsystems
most common simplifying assumptions: (1’) well-stired mixture=spatial homogeneity (2’) reaction rates & law of mass action or reaction probabilities & combinatorics
representation of species according to (1’) by (a) concentrations deterministic differential equations (ODEs) (b) number of molecules stochastic simulation algorithm (Markov process)

e Efficient Modelling of heterogeneity
compartment models (partially heterogeneous): (1) well-stirred within compartment (ODE,MP) & (2) interaction between compartment (consistent coupling)
reaction-diffusion models (fully heterogeneous) (a) concentration in time and space (deterministic PDE) or (b) 3d-molecular positions (random walk and reaction probabilities)

Note: the more complex the model, the more parameters it needs!

Question: how does yeast adapt to different osmotic conditions?
signalling pathway based on osmosensors
“Yeast cells in their natural habitats must adapt to extremes of osmoticconditions such as the saturating sugar of drying fruits and the nearlypure water of rain” (Posas et al., Cell 86, 1996)

eyeast’s two osmosensors
de Nadal, Alepus & Posas, EMBO reports 3 (2002)
“Our current knowledge confirms that many principles of osmoadaptationare conserved across eukaryotes, and therefore the use of yeast as basicmodel system has been of great value elucidating the signal transduction mechanisms underlying the response to high osmolarity.”
