Mutation | Description | Prob (WT evolution) | Prob (STP) |
---|---|---|---|
Duplication | A stretch of 1 or more genes is duplicated in tandem | 0.005 | 0.0015 |
Deletion | A stretch of 1 or more genes is deleted | 0.005 | 0.0015 |
Inversion | A stretch of 1 or more genes is inverted in order | 0.005 | 0.0015 |
Translocation | A stretch of 1 or more genes is moved to a random location | 0.005 | 0.0015 |
(stretch length) | Geometrically distributed with p = 0.3 | - | - |
Gene discovery | Per time-step probability of discovering a new (randomly parameterised) gene. | 0.0002 | (disabled) |
HGT | Per time-step probability of copying a gene from a cell closeby | 0.002 | (disabled) |
Point mutation | Per gene per generation probability of modifying a single parameter of a gene (promoter strength, Michaelis Menten constants) | 0.005 | 0.0015 |
Regulatory mutation | Per gene per generation probability of (partially) modifying the upstream binary operator sequence of a gene | 0.005 | 0.0015 |
