Before revision:  As illustrations, the theory is used in order to tease out the role of cooperative binding in stochastic models in comparison to deterministic models, and applications are given to various model systems, including isolated or populations of toggle switches and a trans-differentiation network.
After revision:  As illustrations, the theory is used in order to tease out the role of cooperative binding in stochastic models in comparison to deterministic models, and applications are given to various model systems, such as toggle switches in isolation or in communicating populations, a synthetic oscillator and a trans-differentiation network.
