This example uses the yeast heterotrimeric G protein model and experimental data reported by [1]. For details about the model, see the Background section in Parameter Scanning, Parameter Estimation, and Sensitivity Analysis in the Yeast Heterotrimeric G Protein Cycle.
Load the G protein model.
Store the experimental data containing the time course for the fraction of active G protein.
Create a groupedData
object based on the experimental data.
Map the appropriate model component to the experimental data. In other words, indicate which species in the model corresponds to which response variable in the data. In this example, map the model parameter GaFrac
to the experimental data variable GaFracExpt
from grpData
.
Use an estimatedInfo
object to define the model parameter kGd
as a parameter to be estimated.
Perform the parameter estimation.
View the estimated parameter value of kGd

Suppose you want to plot the model simulation results using the estimated parameter value. You can either rerun the sbiofit
function and specify to return the optional second output argument, which contains simulation results, or use the fitted
method to retrieve the results without rerunning sbiofit
.
Plot the simulation results.
