The macro-state partition function and a new cell-state combinational analysis have been successfully applied to the modeling of the lactose repressor-operator regulatory system in E. coli. The in vivo characteristics generated by several types of repressor i/sup -d/ mutations are quantitatively correlated with the known in vitro properties of this regulatory system.
