Stochasticity in a Eukaryotic Background
From GcatWiki
The transcriptional processes in Eukaryotes are different from prokaryotes. The differences in Eukaryotic gene expression ultimatly emphasizes different sources of stochasticty as singinicant sources of noise. The need for Eukaryotic genetic information to transition between open and closed chromatin structures makes the turnover time from and induced to a repressed promoter very slow. Therefore, in Eukaryotic backgroudnds, transcriptional bursting is just as much a contributer to noise in protein production as is translational bursting.
