<p> Initially we determined that our system should reach some equilibrium after a certain amount of time. This is because firstly, HCV is a successful virus, so the replicons should not completely degrade away as time goes to infinity.  Secondly, since there are only a finite amount of resources within the cell, the number of replicons in the system cannot keep increasing forever. This means either the number of replicons must tend towards a certain constant (constant with respect to time), or the number of replicons should tend towards oscillations. </p>

TESTING MODULES



The following parts comprise of our miscellaneous collection. These parts were designed in order that we could test our BioBricks, and we have submitted them in the hope that if anyone were to pursure RNA systems in the future, then they would have pre-existing testing parts to use as a foundation.
