Dynamics of small genetic circuits subject to stochastic partitioning
... Most cellular processes are regulated by small genetic networks, named motifs (Wolf and Arkin, 2003; Alon, 2007). It is conceivable that the noise in the process of partitioning of the products of gene expression affects the cell-to-cell diversity of behaviors of these motifs. Here, we study the eff ...
