p38 cascade as a Boolean network
The module's connections read as a signed regulatory graph and translated by ai-gene-review module-to-bnet with the default rule (active when any activator is active and no inhibitor is). Its one loop is p38 output inducing the MKP-1/DUSP1 phosphatase that dephosphorylates p38.
Boxes are steps of the moduleEach is either ON (filled) or OFF. Grey arrows activate; orange flat-headed lines inhibit.
Pick a scenario, press RunSteps switch one at a time, at random, whenever their inputs say they should: the asynchronous update.
Click a box to lock itCycle free → locked ON → locked OFF, to knock a step out or force it on. The read-out updates at once.
Where it ends upEvery possible end state is computed exhaustively. One steady state, or a cycle that never settles: in a Boolean model, a transient pulse.

Update rules
Generated from the module's connections. A step is ON when any activator is ON and no inhibitor is (the default), unless the module declares activation_logic for it. A regulator that logic deliberately leaves out (omitted_regulators, a modulator rather than a switch) stays in the graph as a faint dotted edge and is named beside the rule.
