Genetic toggle switch without cooperative binding.
Genetic switch systems with mutual repression of two transcription factors are studied using deterministic and stochastic methods. Numerous studies have concluded that cooperative binding is a necessary condition for the emergence of bistability in these systems. Here we show that, for a range of biologically relevant conditions, a suitable combination of network structure and stochastic effect...
متن کاملCooperative Binding
Molecular binding is an interaction between molecules that results in a stable association between those molecules. Cooperative binding occurs if the number of binding sites of a macromolecule that are occupied by a specific type of ligand is a nonlinear function of this ligand's concentration. This can be due, for instance, to an affinity for the ligand that depends on the amount of ligand bou...
متن کاملCooperative calcium binding and ATPase activation in sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles.
High affinity calcium binding which is involved in ATPase activation was measured following equilibration of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles with Ca2+ buffers in chromatography columns. Binding occurred with ir,,, = 2.3 X lo6 M” and with a maximal level of 8 to 10 m o l per mg of protein. This value corresponds to 2 calcium ions per ATPase phosphorylation site, since the maximal level of phosph...
متن کاملCooperative DNA Binding Activity
The biochemical activities that underlie the genetically defined activator and repressor functions of the VIVIPAROUSl (VP1) protein have resisted in vitro analysis. Here, we show that a glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion protein, including only the highly conserved 83 domain of VP1, has a highly cooperative, sequence-specific DNA binding activity. GST fusion proteins that include larger reg...
متن کاملCooperative decision making without facilitator
Estimation, learning, pattern recognition, diagnostics, fault detection and adaptive control are prominent examples of dynamic decision making under uncertainty. Under rather general conditions, they can be cast into a common theoretical framework labelled as Bayesian decision making. Richness of the practically developed variants stems from: (i) domain-specific models used; (ii) adopted approx...
