Noise characteristics of feed forward loops.
A prominent feature of gene transcription regulatory networks is the presence in large numbers of motifs, i.e., patterns of interconnection, in the networks. One such motif is the feed forward loop (FFL) consisting of three genes X, Y and Z. The protein product x of X controls the synthesis of protein product y of Y. Proteins x and y jointly regulate the synthesis of z proteins from the gene Z....
متن کاملNoise in Feed-forward Loops for Galactose Utilization
In this chapter we study two naturally occurring feed-forward loops that are involved in galactose metabolism and transport. Despite having network structures that are capable of a producing dynamic, temporally diverse responses we find, by measuring dynamic noise correlations, that in their natural context these feed-forward loops are inactive. By perturbing genetic conditions the activity can...
متن کاملRobustness in Feed-Forward Loops: Clustering of Responses
Even for models of very simple networks, like those in Chapters 2 and 3, describing the system requires many parameters. These parameters are often unknown or uncertain. Consequently, predicting the response of a gene circuit may require infering gene circuit function from data on circuit structure alone. By using the feed-forward loop as a model system, this chapter introduces a technique for ...
متن کاملOn the functional properties of microRNA-mediated feed forward loops
Motivation: Recent studies of genomic-scale regulatory networks suggested that a feed-forward loop (FFL) circuitry is a key component of many such networks. This led to a study of the functional properties of different FFL types, where the regulatory elements are transcription factors. Results: Here we investigate these properties when the mediating regulatory element of the loop is a microRNA....
متن کاملDynamic Modeling of miRNA-mediated Feed-Forward Loops
Given the important role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in genome-wide regulation of gene expression, increasing interest is devoted to mixed transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulatory networks analyzing the combinatorial effect of transcription factors (TFs) and miRNAs on target genes. In particular, miRNAs are known to be involved in feed-forward loops (FFLs), where a TF regulates a miRNA and...
