11. We fitted the analytical results to all means, noises, and correlations simultaneously. To test the resulting parameters (table S1), we conducted Monte Carlo simulations of the network using Gillespie's stochastic simulation algorithm (22). The results from the Langevin model are consistent with these simulations.
