TLDR
This paper is an attempt to formalize in Boolean terms genetic situations, from simple concepts like recessitivity and cis-dominance, to models describing complex control circuits, to describe in compact and unambiguous way, systems which become more and more difficult to describe as their complexity is being unravelled.About:

Estimation of delays in generalized asynchronous Boolean networks
Haimabati Das,Ritwik Kumar Layek +1 more
TL;DR: A new generalized asynchronous Boolean network (GABN) model is proposed that captures the biological reality of cellular dynamics without compromising the computational efficiency of the Boolean framework.

Minimal Trap Spaces of Logical Models are Maximal Siphons of Their Petri Net Encoding
TL;DR: In this article , the authors present an alternative method to compute minimal trap spaces, and hence complex attractors, of a Boolean model, which replaces the need for prime-implicants by a completely different technique, namely the enumeration of maximal siphons in the Petri net encoding of the original model.

The Algebra of Systems Biology
TL;DR: This work shows how tools from mathematics are suitable to study problems in systems biology such as modeling, dynamics prediction, reverse engineering and many others.

Exponential Stability Analysis for Genetic Regulatory Networks with Both Time-Varying and Continuous Distributed Delays
Lizi Yin,Lizi Yin,Yungang Liu +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the global exponential stability of genetic regulatory networks with time-varying delays and continuous distributed delays was investigated, and new conditions of delay-dependent stability were obtained in the form of linear matrix inequality (LMI).

Genetic regulatory mechanisms in the synthesis of proteins.
François Jacob,Jacques Monod +1 more
TL;DR: The synthesis of enzymes in bacteria follows a double genetic control, which appears to operate directly at the level of the synthesis by the gene of a shortlived intermediate, or messenger, which becomes associated with the ribosomes where protein synthesis takes place.

Metabolic stability and epigenesis in randomly constructed genetic nets
TL;DR: The hypothesis that contemporary organisms are also randomly constructed molecular automata is examined by modeling the gene as a binary (on-off) device and studying the behavior of large, randomly constructed nets of these binary “genes”.

INHIBITION BY GLUCOSE OF THE INDUCED SYNTHESIS OF THE β-GALACTOSIDE-ENZYME SYSTEM OF ESCHERICHIA COLI. ANALYSIS OF MAINTENANCE
Melvin Cohn,Kengo Horibata +1 more
TL;DR: The Novick-Weiner effect and the one to be analyzed here prove to be aspects of the same situation and a heterogeneity with respect to the induced synthesis of ,B-galactosidase simulating genetic differences could be provoked within a growing population of otherwise identical cells.

ANALYSIS OF THE DIFFERENTIATION AND OF THE HETEROGENEITY WITHIN A POPULATION OF ESCHERICHIA COLI UNDERGOING INDUCED β-GALACTOSIDASE SYNTHESIS
Melvin Cohn,Kengo Horibata +1 more
TL;DR: The kinetics of induction of the galactozymase of certain yeasts and the permease-3-galactosidase system of Escherichia coli can, under certain conditions, be described as autocatalytic.

Functional analysis of chemical systems in vivo using a logical circuit equivalent. II. The idea of a molecular automaton
TL;DR: The theory presented by the author in his previous paper in this journal, which concerned the use of logical circuits or symbolic logic, is revised and extended and the idea of a molecular automaton is introduced.
