The article presents a 3D agent-based model to simulate the dynamics of redistribution of bicoid mRNA. The model is developed on the basis of the Skeledyne software [Odell and Foe, 2008]. The model reproduces active transport by molecular motors over an undirected network of short microtubules. The model is intended to simulate the data presented in [Spirov et al., 2009; Little et al., 2011; Fahmy et al., 2014; Ali-Murthy and Kornberg, 2016; Cai, Spirov, Akber et al., 2017].
