Biological implications of symmetry in exact solutions for a self-repressing gene
Alexandre F. Ramos, John Reinitz
We chemically characterize the symmetries underlying the exact solutions of a stochastic negatively self-regulating gene. The breaking of symmetry at low molecular number causes th…

Noise reduction by coupling of stochastic processes and canalization in biology
Alexandre F. Ramos, Jose Eduardo M. Hornos, John Reinitz
Randomness is an unavoidable feature of the intracellular environment due to chemical reactants being present in low copy number. That phenomenon, predicted by Delbrück long ago \c…
