Sensitivity Regulation based on Noise Propagation in Stochastic Reaction Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work we focus on how noise propagates in biochemical reaction networks and affects sensitivities of the system. We discover that the stochastic fluctuations can enhance sensitivities in one region of the value of control parameters by reducing sensitivities in another region. Based on this compensation principle, we designed a concentration detector in which enhanced amplification is achieved by an incoherent feedforward reaction network.

Nonlinear biochemical signal processing via noise propagation.
Single-cell studies often show significant phenotypic variability due to the stochastic nature of intra-cellular biochemical reactions. When the numbers of molecules, e.g., transcription factors and regulatory enzymes, are in low abundance, fluctuations in biochemical activities become significant and such "noise" can propagate through regulatory cascades in terms of biochemical reaction networ...
متن کاملNoise Propagation in Two-Step Series MAPK Cascade
Series MAPK enzymatic cascades, ubiquitously found in signaling networks, act as signal amplifiers and play a key role in processing information during signal transduction in cells. In activated cascades, cell-to-cell variability or noise is bound to occur and thereby strongly affects the cellular response. Commonly used linearization method (LM) applied to Langevin type stochastic model of the...
متن کاملExploiting the determinants of stochastic gene expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae for genome-wide prediction of expression noise.
Gene regulation is a process with many steps allowing for stochastic biochemical reactions, which leads to expression noise-i.e., the cell-to-cell stochastic fluctuation in protein abundance. Such expression noise can give rise to drastically diverse phenotypes, even within isogenic cell populations. Although numerous biophysical approaches had been proposed to model the origin and propagation ...
متن کاملAdjusting Phenotypes by Noise Control
Genetically identical cells can show phenotypic variability. This is often caused by stochastic events that originate from randomness in biochemical processes involving in gene expression and other extrinsic cellular processes. From an engineering perspective, there have been efforts focused on theory and experiments to control noise levels by perturbing and replacing gene network components. H...
متن کاملRole of STDP in regulation of neural timing networks in human: a simulation study
Many physiological events require an accurate timing signal, usually generated by neural networks called central pattern generators (CPGs). On the other hand, properties of neurons and neural networks (e.g. time constants of neurons and weights of network connections) alter with time, resulting in gradual changes in timing of such networks. Recently, a synaptic weight adjustment mechanism has b...
