Combinatorial Gene Control02:33

Combinatorial Gene Control

8.3K
Combinatorial gene control is the synergistic action of several transcriptional factors to regulate the expression of a single gene. The absence of one or more of these factors may lead to a significant difference in the level of gene expression or repression.
The expression of more than 30,000 genes is controlled by approximately 2000-3000 transcription factors. This is possible because a single transcription factor can recognize more than one regulatory sequence. The specificity in gene...

Regulation of Expression at Multiple Steps

867
The gene expression in cells is regulated at different stages: (i) transcription, (ii) RNA processing, (iii) RNA localization, and (iv) translation. Transcriptional regulation is mediated by regulatory proteins such as transcription factors, activators, or repressors—these control gene expression by initiating or inhibiting the transcription of genes. Once a precursor or pre-mRNA is produced, it undergoes post-transcriptional modification, including 5' capping, splicing, and the...

Mutation, Gene Flow, and Genetic Drift

57.9K
In a population that is not at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency of alleles changes over time. Therefore, any deviations from the five conditions of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium can alter the genetic variation of a given population. Conditions that change the genetic variability of a population include mutations, natural selection, non-random mating, gene flow, and genetic drift (small population size).

Woodward–Hoffmann Selection Rules and Microscopic Reversibility

3.0K
Electrocyclic reactions, cycloadditions, and sigmatropic rearrangements are concerted pericyclic reactions that proceed via a cyclic transition state. These reactions are stereospecific and regioselective. The stereochemistry of the products depends on the symmetry characteristics of the interacting orbitals and the reaction conditions. Accordingly, pericyclic reactions are classified as either symmetry-allowed or symmetry-forbidden. Woodward and Hoffmann presented the selection criteria for...

Interactions Between Signaling Pathways01:19

Interactions Between Signaling Pathways

6.2K
Signaling cascades usually lack linearity. Multiple pathways interact and regulate one another, allowing cells to integrate and respond to diverse environmental stimuli.
Convergence and divergence, and cross-talk between signaling pathways
Two distinct signaling pathways can converge on a single functional unit, which may either be a single protein or a complex of proteins. The response is either functionally distinct or synergistic between the two pathways but different from the response...

Area of Science:

  • Systems Biology
  • Computational Biology
  • Genomics

Background:

  • Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs) control crucial cellular functions including stress response, DNA repair, and cancer development.
  • Interventions aim to revert GRNs to normal states by modulating gene activity over time.
  • Existing methods often assume full system state observability and ignore cellular responses to interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To model the dynamic interplay between interventions and cellular responses in GRNs as a partially observed zero-sum Markov game.
  • To develop a stochastic intervention policy that accounts for partial state observability.
  • To enhance the efficacy of interventions in complex diseases like cancer.

Main Methods:

  • Formulated the intervention-cell dynamic as a partially observed zero-sum Markov game with binary states.
  • Derived an optimal Nash equilibrium intervention policy for the system.
  • Employed an optimal Minimum Mean-Square Error (MMSE) state estimator to address partial observability.
  • Integrated the MMSE state estimator with the Nash intervention policy.

Main Results:

  • Developed a robust stochastic intervention policy for GRNs with partial state observability.
  • Demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed policy through numerical experiments on a melanoma regulatory network.
  • Showcased the successful integration of state estimation and intervention strategies.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed method provides a powerful framework for designing effective interventions in complex biological systems like GRNs.
  • This approach offers a significant advancement in treating diseases driven by dysregulated gene expression, such as cancer.
  • The integration of game theory and state estimation opens new avenues for precision medicine and therapeutic development.
