    This network models an oscillatory calcium response to GPCR mediated PLCbeta activation, alongwith detailed InsP3 metabolism in the neuron. It differs from the NonOsc_Ca_IP3metabolism network in the CaRegulation module and in InsP3 receptor kinetics. Details of InsP3 receptor kinetics have been adapted from the Othmer-Tang model for oscillatory Ca dynamics. Mishra J, Bhalla US. Biophys J. 2002 Sep;83(3):1298-316.

    From Mahama and Linderman, Total # of receptors/cell = 1900 However, the density is likely to be very high at the synapse. Fay et al Biochem 30 5066-5075 1991 have a value of 60K receptors per cell for neutrophils which comes to 0.1 uM. Here we have a situation where trying to represent the synapse by a 10 micron cube gives awkward results. I will scale up to 0.3 uM since synaptic receptor density is likely to be higher, with the caveat that I should really be using a more geometrically realistic model.

    Kd is calculated only for second order reactions, like nA+nB <->nC or nA<->nC+nD, where n is number and A,B,C,D are molecules, where as for first order reactions Keq is calculated. Kd for higher order reaction are not consider.

      From Martin et al FEBS Lett 316:2 191-196 1993 we have Kd = 600 nM Assuming kb = 10/sec, we get kf = 10/(0.6 uM * 6e5) = 2.8e-5 1/sec/# The off time for Glu seems pretty slow: Nicoletti et al 1986 PNAS 83:1931-1935 and Schoepp and Johnson 1989 J Neurochem 53 1865-1870 indicate it is at least 30 sec. Here we are a little faster because this is only a small part of the off rate, the rest coming from the Rec-Gq complex.

      From Berstein et al 1992 JBC 267(12):8081-8088 we know that 15-40% of Gq binds, GTP_gamma_S. Also about 20-30% of Gq is bound to GTP. To get to these values the receptor-Gq amount should be similar. These rates are designed to give that steady state with a fast tau of 1 sec.
