Event Driven Approach for Simulating Gene Regulation Networks
Gene regulatory networks can be described by continuous models in which genes are acting directly on each other. Genes are activated or inhibited by transcription factors which are direct gene products. The action of a transcription factor on a gene is modeled as a binary on-off response function around a certain threshold concentration. Different thresholds can regulate the behaviors of genes,...
متن کاملRegulation of transbilayer plasma membrane phospholipid asymmetry.
Lipids in biological membranes are asymmetrically distributed across the bilayer; the amine-containing phospholipids are enriched on the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane, while the choline-containing and sphingolipids are enriched on the outer surface. The maintenance of transbilayer lipid asymmetry is essential for normal membrane function, and disruption of this asymmetry is associa...
متن کاملRegulation of Phospholipid Biosynthesis in Arabidopsis
Phospholipids are major constituents of the membranes that separate cells from their environment and compartmentalize eukaryotic cells into functional units. In yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), the expression of genes involved in phospholipid biosynthesis is regulated by a mechanism that responds to changes in the level of phosphatidic acid (PA), a key precursor of phospholipids (Carman and He...
متن کاملRegulation of phospholipid synthesis in yeast.
Phospholipid synthesis in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a complex process that involves regulation by both genetic and biochemical mechanisms. The activity levels of phospholipid synthesis enzymes are controlled by gene expression (e.g., transcription) and by factors (lipids, water-soluble phospholipid precursors and products, and covalent modification of phosphorylation) that modulate ...
متن کاملRegulation of angiogenesis by phospholipid lysophosphatidic acid.
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) as a bioactive phospholipid signaling mediator is emerging as an important regulator of endothelial cell functions and angiogenesis. Many studies have shown that LPA is an active player in regulating the processes of endothelial cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation, all essential in angiogenesis. Through modulating angiogenesis associated gene expressio...
