Here, we develop a model that takes into account steric interactions among the components of the Escherichia coli transcriptional-translational machinery (TTM) and out-of-equilibrium effects of mRNA transcription, translation, and degradation, in order to explain many observed features of the nucleoid.

In the first experiment, cell migrate in a wound-healing model: when applied to this experiment, the inference method predicts the existence of cell-cell interactions, correctly mirroring the strong intercellular contacts which are present in the experiment.
