Stochastic branching-diffusion models for gene expression.
A challenge to both understanding and modeling biochemical networks is integrating the effects of diffusion and stochasticity. Here, we use the theory of branching processes to give exact analytical expressions for the mean and variance of protein numbers as a function of time and position in a spatial version of an established model of gene expression. We show that both the mean and the magnit...
متن کاملStochastic Models of Gene Expression
This thesis addresses the problem of describing the time evolution of a genetic chemical system using a stochastic approach: the Master equation approach, which is the consequence of the fundamental hypothesis of the stochastic formulation of chemical kinetics. The Master equation can be used to compute the time dependent probability distribution of the state of a chemical system. The Master eq...
متن کاملModels of stochastic gene expression
Gene expression is an inherently stochastic process: Genes are activated and inactivated by random association and dissociation events, transcription is typically rare, and many proteins are present in low numbers per cell. The last few years have seen an explosion in the stochastic modeling of these processes, predicting protein fluctuations in terms of the frequencies of the probabilistic eve...
متن کاملStochastic models for relativistic diffusion.
The diffusion equation is related to the Schrödinger equation by analytic continuation. The formula E2=p2c2 + m2c4 leads to a relativistic Schrödinger equation, and analytic continuation yields a relativistic diffusion equation that involves fractional calculus. This paper develops stochastic models for relativistic diffusion and equivalent differential equations with no fractional derivatives....
متن کاملStochastic and delayed stochastic models of gene expression and regulation.
Gene expression and gene regulatory networks dynamics are stochastic. The noise in the temporal amounts of proteins and RNA molecules in cells arises from the stochasticity of transcription initiation and elongation (e.g., due to RNA polymerase pausing), translation, and post-transcriptional regulation mechanisms, such as reversible phosphorylation and splicing. This is further enhanced by the ...
