Theoretical biology: Response to comment on "'Load-induced modulation of signal transduction networks': Reconciling ultrasensitivity with bifunctionality?"

Straube suggests that a model that reflects the bifunctional nature of the cycle enzyme uridylyltransferase/uridylyl-removing enzyme (UTase/UR) should be used, in which the UT and UR activities are distinct and reciprocally regulated activity states of the enzyme, and notes that if such a model is u...
