Sources of stochasticity in constitutive and autoregulated gene expression
نویسندگان
چکیده
Gene expression is inherently noisy as many steps in the read-out of the genetic information are stochastic. To disentangle the effect of different sources of stochasticity in such systems, we consider various models that describe some processes as stochastic and others as deterministic. We review earlier results for unregulated (constitutive) gene expression and present new results for a gene controlled by negative autoregulation with cell growth modeled by linear volume growth.

Graded or threshold response of the tet-controlled gene expression: all depends on the concentration of the transactivator
BACKGROUND Currently, the step-wise integration of tet-dependent transactivator and tet-responsive expression unit is considered to be the most promising tool to achieve stable tet-controlled gene expression in cell populations. However, disadvantages of this strategy for integration into primary cells led us to develop an "All-In-One" vector system, enabling simultaneous integration of both co...

Ethylene plays an important role in wide-ranging aspects of plant growth and development, includingfruit ripening, leaf and flower senescence. In this study, the expression patterns of two genes involved in theethylene signal transduction pathway (RhCTR1 and RhCTR2) were investigated during the flower openingstages in two Rosa hybrida cultivars, ‘Black magic’ and ‘Maroussia’, ...

BACKGROUND:Class II transactivator (CIITA) is a dominanttranscriptional element, controlling numerous genes in theimmune system. CIITA is expressed in a constitutive pattern inantigen presenting cells although its expression can occur inother cell types. Since the revelation of CIITA, there have beenconsiderable advances toward understanding its role as anactivator of MHC II genes in humans and...

Background: Salmonella belongs to the family of Enterobacteriaceae, an intestinal, gram negative, and anaerobic bacterium. Salmonella affects a wide range of vertebrates, mainly through direct and indirect contact with the infected source. Salmonellosis is a dangerous infectious disease and a common human-animal disease. The integron (int) gene is effective in drug resistance and bacterial prol...
