Tuning and controlling gene expression noise in synthetic gene networks
Synthetic gene networks can be used to control gene expression and cellular phenotypes in a variety of applications. In many instances, however, such networks can behave unreliably due to gene expression noise. Accordingly, there is a need to develop systematic means to tune gene expression noise, so that it can be suppressed in some cases and harnessed in others, e.g. in cellular differentiati...
متن کاملTuning noise in gene expression
The relative contribution of promoter architecture and the associated chromatin environment in regulating gene expression noise has remained elusive. In their recent work, Arkin, Schaffer and colleagues (Dey et al, 2015) show that mean expression and noise for a given promoter at different genomic loci are uncorrelated and influenced by the local chromatin environment.
متن کاملRobustness analysis and tuning of synthetic gene networks
MOTIVATION The goal of synthetic biology is to design and construct biological systems that present a desired behavior. The construction of synthetic gene networks implementing simple functions has demonstrated the feasibility of this approach. However, the design of these networks is difficult, notably because existing techniques and tools are not adapted to deal with uncertainties on molecula...
متن کاملThe synthetic biology toolbox for tuning gene expression in yeast.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae can serve as a key production platform for biofuels, nutraceuticals, industrial compounds, and therapeutic proteins. Over the recent years, synthetic biology tools and libraries have expanded in yeast to provide newfound control over regulation and synthetic circuits. This review provides an update on the status of the synthetic biology toolbox in yeast for use as a cel...
متن کاملTuning gene expression with synthetic upstream open reading frames.
We engineered short ORFs and used them to control the expression level of recombinant proteins. These short ORFs, encoding a two-amino acid peptide, were placed upstream of an ORF encoding a protein of interest. Insertion of these upstream ORFs (uORFs) resulted in suppression of protein expression. By varying the base sequence preceding the uORF, we sought to vary the translation initiation rat...
