About this model
====================
This is a Functional Cell Unit for adenylyl cyclase metabolism in the cardiac cell.
Model status
=============
The current CellML implementation runs in OpenCOR.
Model overview
===================
All components are presented in `bond-graph` form.
Components are made by converting an existing kinetic model and translating into bond-graph form.

Components of the model.
A description of the process to find bond-graph parameter is shown in the folder `parameter_finder <parameter_finder>`_, which relies on:
1. stoichiometry of system
2. kinetic constants for forward/reverse reactions
- If not already, all reactions are made reversible by assigning a small value to the reverse direction.
3. linear algebra script. Here, this solver is performed in Python.
Modular description
===================
Components
----------
CellML divides the mathematical model into distinct components, which are able to be re-used in other composite models.
These CellML components are:
- `beta-1 adrenergic receptor <https://models.physiomeproject.org/workspace/6f7>`_ ( :math:`{\beta}` 1AR)
- `Gs Protein <https://models.physiomeproject.org/workspace/6f8>`_
- `muscarinic receptor <https://models.physiomeproject.org/workspace/707>`_ (M2)
- `Gi Protein <https://models.physiomeproject.org/workspace/6f9>`_
- `cyclic AMP <https://models.physiomeproject.org/workspace/674>`_ (cAMP)

"`Iancu et al. <https://models.physiomeproject.org/exposure/f67b68f901fc3986fcea0dcfceb503f9>`_", "M2, Gs Protein"
Each of these blocks is itself a CellML model, complete with bond-graph parameters appropriate for the isolated system.
