Analytical distributions for stochastic gene expression
Vahid Shahrezaei,Peter S. Swain +1 more
TL;DR: An approximation that allows the calculation of not only the mean and variance, but also the distribution of protein numbers is presented, which implies that protein synthesis occurs in geometrically distributed bursts and allows mRNA to be eliminated from a master equation description.
Journal ArticleDOI
Colored extrinsic fluctuations and stochastic gene expression.
TL;DR: The standard stochastic simulation algorithm is extended to include extrinsic fluctuations, showing that these fluctuations affect mean protein numbers and intrinsic noise, can speed up typical network response times, and can explain trends in high‐throughput measurements of variation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The stochastic nature of biochemical networks.
Vahid Shahrezaei,Peter S. Swain +1 more
TL;DR: Advances in modelling stochasticity are focused on, in understanding its effects on evolution and cellular design, and on means by which it may be exploited in biotechnology and medicine.
Journal ArticleDOI
The scaffold protein Ste5 directly controls a switch-like mating decision in yeast
TL;DR: It is argued that the architecture of the Fus3–Ste5–Ptc1 circuit generates a novel ultrasensitivity mechanism, which is robust to variations in the concentrations of these proteins, which helps assure that mating can occur despite stochastic or genetic variation between individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Competition between Phasic and Asynchronous Release for Recovered Synaptic Vesicles at Developing Hippocampal Autaptic Synapses
TL;DR: Despite depression of phasic release during train stimulation, transmission can be maintained at a near-maximal rate by switching to an asynchronous mode that takes advantage of a bulk presynaptic [Ca2+]i.
