Abstract

In a recent article Chu et al. presented a computational model investigating the evolutionary origin of so-called uptake signal sequences in bacteria. In that contribution the authors used an agent-based approach. The main aim of this article is to understand the fitness-landscape on which the agents operate. We propose such a fitness- landscape and discuss its implications. This opens the possibility to use GAs for future simulations rather than the computationally expensive agent-based model.
