The conc of this has been a problem. Schaecter and Benowitz use 50 uM, but Shinomura et al have < 5. So I have altered the DAG-dependent rates in the PKC model to this.
Raise kf from 1.667e-10 to 2e-10 to get better match data.
This model consists of receptor-ligand interaction, G-protein activation, Adenylyl cyclase mediated formation of cAMP and activation of PKA in the neuron. Demonstration programs using this model described in Bhalla US.

kf raised 10 X based on Shinomura et al PNAS 88 5149-5153 1991 closer analysis of Shinomura et al: kf now 1e-8 (was 1.66e-8). Further tweak. To get sufficient AA synergy, increase kf to 1.5e-8 26 June 1996: Corrected DAG levels: reduce kf by 15x from 1.5e-8 1e-9
Need est of rate of assoc of Ca and PKC. Assume it is fast The original parameter-searched kf of 439.4 has been scaled by 1/6e8 to account for change of units to n. Kf now 8.16e-7, kb=.6085 Raised kf to 1e-6 to match Ca curve, kb to .5
Raise kb from .087 to 0.1 to match data from Shinomura et al. Lower kf from 1.155 to 1.0 to match data from Shinomura al.
Need est of rate. Assume it is fast Obtained from param search kf raised 10 X : see Shinomura et al PNAS 88 5149-5153 1991. kf changed from 3.865e-7 to 2.0e-7 in line with closer analysis of Shinomura data. 26 June 1996: Corrected DAG data: reduce kf 15x from 2e-7 1.333e-8
Reduced kf to 0.66X to match Shinomura et al data. Initial: kf = 3.3333e-9 New: 2e-9 Newer: 2e-8 kb was 0.2 2.
Initial basal levels were set by kf = 1, kb = 20. In model, though, the basal levels of PKC activity higher.
Schaechter and Benowitz We have to increase Kf for conc scaling Changed kf to 2e-9 on Sept 19, 94. This gives better match.
