mRNA转运中转录爆发的减弱

Attenuation of transcriptional bursting in mRNA transport

Li-ping Xiong, Yu-qiang Ma, Lei-Han Tang

摘要:

由于生物化学过程的随机性,活细胞内任何给定类型分子的拷贝数往往表现出很大的时间波动。在这里,我们开发的分析方法来研究如何从突发输入所产生的噪声是重塑的运输反应,这是线性的或米氏类型。缓慢的传输速率平滑了输出端的波动,并最大限度地减少了突发对下游细胞活动的影响。在真核细胞中的基因表达的背景下,我们的研究结果表明,转录爆发可以大大减弱的mRNA从细胞核到细胞质的运输。运输介质或核孔的饱和有助于进一步降低噪音。我们建议在解释转录爆发的相关实验数据时,应考虑mRNA的转运。

英文摘要:

Due to the stochastic nature of biochemical processes, the copy number of any given type of molecule inside a living cell often exhibits large temporal fluctuations. Here, we develop analytic methods to investigate how the noise arising from a bursting input is reshaped by a transport reaction which is either linear or of the Michaelis-Menten type. A slow transport rate smoothes out fluctuations at the output end and minimizes the impact of bursting on the downstream cellular activities. In the context of gene expression in eukaryotic cells, our results indicate that transcriptional bursting can be substantially attenuated by the transport of mRNA from nucleus to cytoplasm. Saturation of the transport mediators or nuclear pores contributes further to the noise reduction. We suggest that the mRNA transport should be taken into account in the interpretation of relevant experimental data on transcriptional bursting.
