    Summary

    This study presents cell cycle models for eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells, detailing growth, division, and variability sources. Microbial cell variability stems from size monitoring inaccuracies, while mammalian cells show growth factor interaction effects.

    Area of Science:

    • Mathematical modeling
    • Cell biology
    • Systems biology

    Background:

    • Understanding cellular growth and division dynamics is crucial for functional control mechanisms and automated analysis of cell data.
    • Existing models may not fully capture the complexities of cell cycle regulation and population dynamics across diverse cell types.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and present a unified mathematical model for describing cell cycle dynamics in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
    • To investigate and identify the primary sources of variability in cell population properties.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a two-subsystem model: one for RNA/protein growth dynamics, another for DNA replication and cell division.
    • Application of the model to analyze cell cycle processes in mammalian cells, yeast, and prokaryotic cells.
    • Extension of the model to incorporate additional sources of variability, such as growth factor interactions.

    Main Results:

    • The model provides a unitary framework for describing the cell cycle of diverse cell types.
    • In microbial cells, variability is mainly attributed to inaccuracies in the molecular cell size monitoring mechanism.
    • In normal mammalian cells, variability is influenced by interactions with growth factors that induce competence.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed cell cycle models effectively describe growth, division, and variability in different cell types.
    • The findings highlight distinct primary sources of variability in microbial versus mammalian cell populations.
    • The extended model offers a comprehensive approach to understanding mammalian cell growth properties.
