Strain BSA115 is grown until appr. OD 0.25 then expression of sigB is induced by the addition of IPTG. The extend of stress response is measured by the expression of lacZ via beta-Gal assay. The experiment lasts for appr. 400 min.

The stressosome is composed of three proteins that assemble in the form of an icosahedron. Icosahedra can be modelled in different ways with different abstraction levels regarding the original stressosome structure. The pdf-figure introduces geometric modelling of the stressosome using origami and particle dynamics simulations.

The figure contains information necessary to understand the mathematical model of experiments in BSA115. In these experiments sigB response is artificially initiated by the addition of IPTG while sigB is downstream of a Pspac promoter. The figure shows a flow-chart diagram that combines three hypotheses to explain experiments. It contains the ODEs and the fit of the respective models to the data.
