In wild type Drosophila embryos gap genes are expressed as large intersecting domains along the A-P axis (Figure 1A). In general, all these domains exhibit ...

The successful modeling of the quantitative aspects of gap gene expression in mutant for the trunk gap gene Kr is a significant achievement of this work. This ...

Aug 23, 2012 · In this paper we apply a phenomenological model known as gene circuits to reconstruct the gap gene network in Kr null mutants. This model ...

Integrated patterns of gap gene expression in wild type embryos (A) and in Kr mutants (B). The red dotted line in (B) shows Kr expression in wild type embryos.

Jul 20, 2011 · We model the early mRNA and protein dynamics of the gap genes hunchback, Kruppel, giant, and knirps, taking as regulatory inputs the maternal Bicoid and Caudal ...

The segmentation gene network in early Drosophila embryo provides a powerful model system to study the role of genes in pattern formation · In particular we ...

We model the early mRNA and protein dynamics of the gap genes hunchback, Kruppel, giant, and knirps, taking as regulatory inputs the maternal Bicoid and Caudal ...

Apr 1, 2013 · Here we characterize the response of the Drosophila segmentation system to mutations in two gap genes, Kr and kni, in the form of single or ...

We propose the third-order model equation of the Jeffreys type for concentrations of gap gene proteins in order to take into account particle inertia.

The segmentation gene network in Drosophila embryo solves the fundamental problem of embryonic patterning: how to establish a periodic pattern of gene ...
