Figure 5.16: Dynamics of a genetic switch. The phase portrait on the left shows that the switch has three equilibrium points, corresponding to protein A having a concentration greater than, equal to, or less than protein B. The equilibrium point with equal protein concentrations is unstable, but the other equilibrium points are stable. The simulation on the right shows the time response of the system starting from two different initial conditions. The initial portion of the curve corresponds to initial concentrations $z(0)=(1,5)$ and converges to the equilibrium point where $z_{1e}<z_{2e}$ . At time $t=10$ , the concentrations are perturbed by +2 in $z_{1}$ and −2 in $z_{2}$ , moving the state into the region of the state space whose solutions converge to the equilibrium point where $z_{2e}<z_{1e}$ .
