Model of gene transcription including the return of a RNA polymeraseto the beginning of a transcriptional cycle Vladimir P. Zhdanov* PHYSICAL REVIEW E 80, 051925 (2009)
Outline • Preliminary • Introduction • Model of Gene Transcription • Experimental Results • Conclusion
Preliminary • Central dogma of molecular biology
Preliminary • Gene Transcription: DNA->RNA Initiation Elongation Termination
Introduction • Regulation of Gene expression • DNA-binding Protein may increase or suppress the Transcription initiation rate
Introduction • What happens at end of transcriptional cycle? • RNAP diffuse along DNA • RNAP disassociate from DNA • RNAP start Transcription cycle again • A kinetic model of gene transcription • Include the return of RNAP to a transcription cycle • Show transcriptional burst
Model of Gene Transcription • Conventional Scheme:
Model of Gene Transcription • Conventional Scheme: • probability that the gene is in the P⋆1 state: • Steady-state probability that the gene is in the P⋆1state: • Transcription Rate :
Model of Gene Transcription • Conventional Scheme: • probability that the gene is in the P⋆1 state: • Steady-state probability that the gene is in the P⋆1state: • Transcription Rate :
Model of Gene Transcription • Definition • ka : associate rate (Po->P⋆ 1) • kd : disassociate rate (Po<-P ⋆ 1) • c : RNAP concentration • k0: disassociate rate (P ⋆ ->P*) • k1: transition rate (P*1->P*2) • k2: transition rate (P * 2 -> P⋆1) • : diffusion jumps rate (P ⋆1 <->P ⋆2) • P : states for RNAP ,p :probability … ⋆ : associated o : unbound * : elongated
Model of Gene Transcription • Conventional Scheme + Diffusion: • probabilities of P⋆1 ,P*1,P*2, P⋆2 state: Steady-state
Model of Gene Transcription • Conventional Scheme + Diffusion: • Transcription Rate : • With saturation Transcription rate:
Model of Gene Transcription • Conventional Scheme + Diffusion: • Transcription Rate :
Model of Gene Transcription • Transcription Burst • The probability that RNAP produces n RNA after association is given by:
Experimental Results Diffusion burst Without Diffusion
Experimental Results diffusion jumps rate = 100 s-1
Experimental Results diffusion jumps rate = 200 s-1
Experimental Results diffusion jumps rate = 500 s-1
Conclusion • Analyze the end of transcription cycle. • Transcriptional burst might occur without regulation of transcription by DNA-binding protein.
