changeGeneAssoc

 changeGeneAssoc
   Changes gene association for a defined reaction

   model       a model structure to change the gene association
   rxnID       string or cell array of reaction IDs
   geneAssoc   string of additional or replacement gene association.
               Should be written with ' and ' to indicate subunits, ' or '
               to indicate isoenzymes, and brackets '()' to separate
               different instances
   replace     true if old gene association should be replaced with new
               association. False if new gene association should be
               concatenated to the old association (opt, default true)

   model       an updated model structure
