miRNAs confer phenotypic robustness to gene networks by suppressing biological noise
miRNAs are small non-coding RNAs able to modulate target gene expression. It has been postulated that miRNAs confer robustness to biological processes, but clear experimental evidence is still missing. Here, using a synthetic biological approach, we demonstrate that microRNAs provide phenotypic robustness to transcriptional regulatory networks by buffering fluctuations in protein levels. We con...
متن کاملRobustness to noise in synchronization of complex networks
In this report, we investigate dynamical robustness of a complex network to noise injected through one of its nodes. We focus on synchronization of coupled nonlinear systems and, as a special instance, we address the classical consensus protocol for linear integrators. We establish an exact closed-form expression of the synchronization error for the consensus protocol and an approximate result ...
متن کاملOptimising Robustness of Consensus to Noise on Directed Networks
A major area of study in recent years has been the development of robotic groups that are capable of carrying out complicated and useful tasks and yet are comprised of relatively simple individuals following relatively simple rules. Despite the evidence from natural groups of animals, birds, fish and insects that such behaviour is possible, many challenges remain in the attempt to translate it ...
متن کاملThe Evolution of Heterogeneities Altered by Mutational Robustness, Gene Expression Noise and Bottlenecks in Gene Regulatory Networks
Intra-population heterogeneity is commonly observed in natural and cellular populations and has profound influence on their evolution. For example, intra-tumor heterogeneity is prevalent in most tumor types and can result in the failure of tumor therapy. However, the evolutionary process of heterogeneity remains poorly characterized at both genotypic and phenotypic level. Here we study the evol...
متن کاملNoise Robustness in Speech To
This paper describes various noise robustness issues in a speech-to-speech translation system. We present quantitative measures for noise robustness in the context of speech recognition accuracy and speech-to-speech translation performance. To enhance noise immunity, we explore two approaches to improve the overall speech-to-speech translation performance. First, a multi-style training techniqu...
