Adjusted sigma_free_fractions from [1.0, 0.3, 0.02, 0.10, 0.05]
to [1.0, 0.02, 0.01, 0.05, 0.02] to match in vivo holoenzyme fractions:

  σ70: 0.845 (target 0.85, Grigorova et al. 2006 Mol Cell)
  σ38: 0.044 (target 0.05, Jishage et al. 1996 J Bacteriol)
  σ32: 0.043 (target 0.05, Grossman et al. 1984 Cell)
  σ24: 0.044 (target 0.03)
  σ54: 0.024 (target 0.02)

Biological basis for free fractions:
  σ38: 2% free (98% degraded by ClpXP, Zgurskaya et al. 1997)
  σ32: 1% free (99% sequestered by DnaK/DnaJ, Guisbert et al. 2004)
  σ24: 5% free (95% sequestered by RseA, Ades et al. 1999)
  σ54: 2% free (requires EBP activator, Cannon et al. 1999)

Under stress (ppGpp=325µM, RpoS=2000): σ38 rises to 0.82 (Δ=+0.78)
New process: NutrientLimitation (ecoli-nutrient-limitation)
Models carbon starvation → stringent response → growth arrest:

  glucose depletion → uncharged tRNA ↑ → RelA activation
  → ppGpp synthesis (kcat=15/s, positive feedback from Shyp et al. 2012)
  → ppGpp accumulates to ~380 µM in 2 min (lit: 200-500 µM)
  → RNAP active fraction ↓ → rRNA ↓ → growth arrest
  → RpoS stabilised (ClpXP inhibited by ppGpp)

Literature parameters:
  RelA kcat: 15 s-1 (English et al. 2011 PNAS, with feedback)
  SpoT kcat: 0.5 s-1 (Xiao et al. 1991 J Biol Chem)
  Ks_glucose: 4 µM (Kovárová-Kovar & Egli 1998)
  ppGpp Km (SpoT): 50 µM (Murray & Bremer 1996)
  RpoS deg rate: 0.006 s-1 (t½=2min, Zgurskaya et al. 1997)
