Resumen

La expresión génica en las células de mamíferos es sorprendentemente predecible. El estado celular y el entorno amortiguan el ruido transcripcional, haciendo que los niveles de ARNm sean menos estocásticos de lo que se pensaba anteriormente.

Cell Specific Gene Expression

Multicellular organisms contain a variety of structurally and functionally distinct cell types, but the DNA in all the cells originated from the same parent cells. The differences in the cells can be attributed to the differential gene expression. Liver cells, whose functions include detoxification of blood, production of bile to metabolize fats, and synthesis of proteins essential for metabolism, must express a specific set of genes to perform their functions. Gene expression also varies with...
