Diffusion driven oscillations in gene regulatory networks.
Gene regulatory networks (GRNs) play an important role in maintaining cellular function by correctly timing key processes such as cell division and apoptosis. GRNs are known to contain similar structural components, which describe how genes and proteins within a network interact - typically by feedback. In many GRNs, proteins bind to gene-sites in the nucleus thereby altering the transcription ...
متن کاملExistence criteria of periodic oscillations in cyclic gene regulatory networks
In this paper, we derive graphical and analytic criteria for the existence of periodic oscillations in large-scale cyclic gene regulatory networks, and present quantitative biological insight based on the analytic result. Based on the Poincaré-Bendixson theorem for cyclic systems, it is first shown that local instability of an equilibrium point implies the existence of periodic oscillations. Th...
متن کاملKey Regulatory Gene Expression in Erythroleukemia Differentiation
The characteristics of cellular and molecular mechanisms associated with cell proliferation and differentiation is important to understand malignancy. In this report we characterise a leukemic model, D5A1, to study the action of differentiation agent, cellular events and gene expression of the selected transcription factors. Cells induced with 4 mM hexamethylene bisacetamide (HMBA) caused signs...
متن کاملGene Regulatory Networks
Tryptophan is one of the 20 amino acids that link together to form proteins. For humans it is an essential amino acid, we must get it from our diet since we cannot synthesize it. E. coli bacterial cells, however, can synthesize the amino acid tryptophan when it is not provided from the environment (e.g. the gut where it lives). It would be wasteful to synthesize tryptophan when it is readily av...
متن کاملGene-centered regulatory networks.
Differential gene expression plays a critical role in the development and physiology of multicellular organisms. At a 'systems level' (e.g. at the level of a tissue, organ or whole organism), this process can be studied using gene regulatory network (GRN) models that capture physical and regulatory interactions between genes and their regulators. In the past years, significant progress has been...
