GFtbox Growth factor naming conventions
Prefix
id_ |
identity factors (non-diffusible). Identity factors can be labelled as on the A or B side (ida_, idb_)
|
s_ |
signalling factors (diffuse not including polariser)
|
v_ |
visualising labels (e.g. theta, bend, kpar, other labels)
|
f_ |
finite element manipulation (e.g. seams, making holes)
|
Suffix
_p |
promotor: how much the expression of the factor is being promoted in the model
|
_l |
level of morphogen, i.e. *_p times *_a. This gets updated at the end of the interaction function and might change according to growth or mutation, see *_a.
|
_i |
index into the main data structure morphogen field, m.morphogen.
|
_a |
activity: by default it is 1 and if the factor is mutated or silenced then it is 0. However, it can be in the range [0,...,1].
|
Standard morphogens
Specifying growth
kapar_p,kapar_a,kapar_l |
specify growth on the 'A' side parallel to the polariser and in the plane of the tissue
|
kbpar_p,kbpar_a,kbpar_l |
specify growth on the 'B' side parallel to the polariser and in the plane of the tissue
|
kaper_p,kaper_a,kaper_l |
specify growth on the 'A' side perpendicular to the polariser and in the plane of the tissue
|
kbper_p,kbper_a,kbper_l |
specify growth on the 'B' side perpendicular to the polariser and in the plane of the tissue
|
knor_p,knor_a,knor_l] |
specify growth normal to the plane of the tissue (i.e. thickness)
|
Controlling growth
P |
Polariser level.
|
strainret_p,strainret_a,strainret_l |
a number between 0 (no strain retention, default) and 1 (full strain retention).
|
kbpar_p,kbpar_a,kbpar_l |
a number between 0 (no inhibition of growth) and 1 (fully inhibited)
