Stochasticity in a Eukaryotic Background


Manifestations of stochasticity in cellular protein production are observable in processes both intrinsic and extrinsic to the gene in question. Intrinsic stochasiticy is characterized as that which is inherent in the processes of transcription and translation (ex. Gillsepe Model); extrinsic stochasticity is characterized as that which arises from other sources (ex. Presence of RNAP/ribosomes/mRNA degredation machinery, stage in cell cycle, or plasmid copy number.)
