Load the gprotein.sbproj project, which includes the variable m1, a SimBiology^® model object.

sbioloadproject gprotein

Set the simulation solver to ode15s and set a stop time of 500 by editing the SolverType and StopTime properties of the configset object associated with the m1 model.

csObj = getconfigset(m1);
csObj.SolverType = 'ode15s';
csObj.StopTime   = 500;

Specify to log simulation results of all species.

csObj.RuntimeOptions.StatesToLog = 'all';

Suppose the amount of the ligand species L is 0 at the start of the simulation, but it increases to a particular amount at time = 100. Use sbioselect to select the species named L and set its initial amount to 0. Use addevent to set up the desired event.

speciesObj = sbioselect(m1,'Type','species','Name','L');
speciesObj.InitialAmount = 0;
evt = addevent(m1,'time >= 100','L = 6.022E17');

Simulate the model.

[t,x,names] = sbiosimulate(m1);

Simulate the simulation results. Notice that the species L amount increases when the event is triggered at simulation time 100. Changes in other species do not show up in the plot due to the wide range in species amounts.

plot(t,x);
legend(names)
xlabel('Time');
ylabel('Amount');

To see the changes of other species, plot without the species L (the 5th species) data.

figure
plot(t,x(:,[1:4 6:8]));
legend(names{[1:4 6:8]});
xlabel('Time');
ylabel('Amount');

Alternative to storing simulation data in separate outputs, such as t, x, and names as above, you can store them all in a single SimData object. You can then use selectbyname to extract arrays containing the simulation data of your interest.

simdata     = sbiosimulate(m1);
sbioplot(simdata);

Expand Run 1 to see the names of species and parameter that are plotted.

simdata_noL = selectbyname(simdata, {'Ga','G','Gd','GaFrac','RL','R'});
sbioplot(simdata_noL);
