There are two limitations on the model specification: 1. The identifiers canot be quoted, and 1. No c or C++ key words can be used as identifiers. On the other hand, it is possible to compute the values to be assigned, as in this example of adjusting an equilibrium constant to its apparent value at the prevailing pH: {{{ pH = 7.5 k2eq = 17.84e8*10**(-pH) }}} |

{{{ m = ScrumPy.Model() }}} Once it has been loaded, values can be inspected, e.g.: {{{ >>> m[ " x_A " ] # parameter 1 . 0 >>> m[ "B" ] # concentration 0.4 >>> m[ "R1" ] # rate, evaluated with current variable values 3.3333333333333335 }}} They can, of course, also be changed: {{{ >>> m[ " x_A " ] = 2 # parameter >>> m[ "B" ] = 2 # concentration }}} However, note: {{{ >>> m["R1"] 3.3333333333333335 >>> m.FindSS() >>> m["R1"] 2.814141152659996 }}} That is, the computation of the rate is not updated until ''m.FindSS()'' is called to force a reevaluation of the rate. |
Kinetic Modelling
The general form of the description of a kinetic model has been covered in the pages on the ScrumPy Model Description Language. Consider the following two enzyme system as an example:
# Two reactions with reversible Michaelis-Menten kinetics R1: x_A <> B Vmax1/K1A * (x_A - B/Keq1)/ ( 1 + x_A/K1A + B/K1B ) R2: B <> x_C Vmax2/K2B * (B - x_C/Keq2)/ ( 1 + B/K2B + x_C/K2C ) x_A = 1 x_C = 1 Vmax1 = 10 K1A = 1 K1B = 1 Keq1 = 2 Vmax2 = 10 K2B = 1 K2C = 1 Keq2 = 2 B=0.4
Note that this file contains two reaction definitions with their kinetic equations, followed by initial assignments of the parameters and the variable (B).
There are two limitations on the model specification:
- The identifiers canot be quoted, and
- No c or C++ key words can be used as identifiers.
On the other hand, it is possible to compute the values to be assigned, as in this example of adjusting an equilibrium constant to its apparent value at the prevailing pH:
pH = 7.5 k2eq = 17.84e8*10**(-pH)
If this model had already been saved as a spy file, then it can be loaded into ScrumPy as follows:
m = ScrumPy.Model()
Once it has been loaded, values can be inspected, e.g.:
>>> m[ " x_A " ] # parameter 1 . 0 >>> m[ "B" ] # concentration 0.4 >>> m[ "R1" ] # rate, evaluated with current variable values 3.3333333333333335
They can, of course, also be changed:
>>> m[ " x_A " ] = 2 # parameter >>> m[ "B" ] = 2 # concentration
However, note:
>>> m["R1"] 3.3333333333333335 >>> m.FindSS() >>> m["R1"] 2.814141152659996
That is, the computation of the rate is not updated until m.FindSS() is called to force a reevaluation of the rate.
