The Two Equations Used to Model Gene Expression
Determinisic
A deterministic equation uses a rate equation to describe the transcription and translation of genes.
Example (box1) Description of Box 1
Stochastic
Stochastic models take into account the "randomness" of transcription and translation by utilizing variables for the formation and decay of single molecules and multi-component complexes.
