Parameter sensitivity of autorepressed expression ($S_{Y,\beta }=(1+s)/[1+(n+1)s]$)

At a Hill equation equilibrium with $s=(Y/K{)}^n$, differentiating $\beta =\alpha Y(1+s)$ gives the displayed logarithmic sensitivity. It approaches one without effective feedback and $1/(n+1)$ under strong repression. Threshold pinning in the logic approximation for gene regulation instead gives approximately zero production sensitivity while the threshold is held fixed.
