负反馈与基因的物理极限

Negative Feedback and Physical Limits of Genes

Nicolae Radu Zabet

摘要:

本文比较了自阻遏基因和简单基因(无自调控基因)在固定代谢成本假设下的反应时间和输出噪声。分析表明,在泄漏表达率不为零的情况下,负反馈减少了基因的开启和关闭时间。只有在低的泄漏表达率下,自阻遏基因的噪声才会低于简单基因的噪声。总而言之,对于低的,但非零的泄漏表达率,与简单的基因相比,自动抑制的基因更快,噪音更小。

英文摘要:

This paper compares the auto-repressed gene to a simple one (a gene without auto-regulation) in terms of response time and output noise under the assumption of fixed metabolic cost. The analysis shows that, in the case of non-vanishing leak expression rate, the negative feedback reduces both the switching on and switching off times of a gene. The noise of the auto-repressed gene will be lower than the one of the simple gene only for low leak expression rates. Summing up, for low, but non-vanishing leak expression rates, the auto-repressed gene is both faster and less noisier compared to the simple one.
