Regulatory control and the costs and benefits of biochemical noise [PDF]
Experiments in recent years have vividly demonstrated that gene expression can be highly stochastic. How protein concentration fluctuations affect the growth rate of a population of cells, is, however, a wide open question.

What makes the lac-pathway switch: identifying the fluctuations that trigger phenotype switching in gene regulatory systems [PDF]
Multistable gene regulatory systems sustain different levels of gene expression under identical external conditions. Such multistability is used to encode phenotypic states in processes including nutrient uptake and persistence in bacteria, fate ...

Development of a Positive-readout Mouse Model of siRNA Pharmacodynamics
Development of RNAi-based therapeutics has the potential to revolutionize treatment options for a range of human diseases. However, as with gene therapy, a major barrier to progress is the lack of methods to achieve and measure efficient delivery for ...

Sequence Dependence of Transcription Factor-Mediated DNA Looping [PDF]
DNA is subject to large deformations in a wide range of biological processes. Two key examples illustrate how such deformations influence the readout of the genetic information: the sequestering of eukaryotic genes by nucleosomes, and DNA looping in ...

Structure and function of negative feedback loops at the interface of genetic and metabolic networks [PDF]
The molecular network in an organism consists of transcription/translation regulation, protein-protein interactions/modifications and a metabolic network, together forming a system that allows the cell to respond sensibly to the multiple signal molecules

How lac repressor recognizes lac operator. [PDF]
Nucleotide analogs were substituted for unmodified nucleotides at specific sites in the lac operator sequence by a combination of chemical and enzymatic procedures. The nitrocellulose filter assay was used to study the interactions of these modified operators with wild-type (SQ) and tight-binding (QX86) lac repressors.

Dynamic model of gene regulation for the lac operon [PDF]
Gene regulatory network is a collection of DNA which interact with each other and with other matter in the cell. The lac operon is an example of a relatively simple genetic network and is one of the best-studied structures in the Escherichia coli ...

Crystal and cocrystal structures of the LacI and PurR repressors reveal a novel use of hinge alpha helices which bind in the minor groove of the operator and mediate transmission of the allosteric signals that modulate DNA-binding activity.
