text: 'Gene expression is regulated by the set of transcription factors (TFs) that
bind to the promoter. The ensuing regulating function is often represented as
a combinational logic circuit, where output (gene expression) is determined by
current input values (promoter bound TFs) only. However, the simultaneous arrival
of TFs is a strong assumption, since transcription and translation of genes introduce
intrinsic time delays and there is no global synchronisation among the arrival
times of different molecular species at their targets. We present an experimentally
implementable genetic circuit with two inputs and one output, which in the presence
of small delays in input arrival, exhibits qualitatively distinct population-level
phenotypes, over timescales that are longer than typical cell doubling times.
From a dynamical systems point of view, these phenotypes represent long-lived
transients: although they converge to the same value eventually, they do so after
a very long time span. The key feature of this toy model genetic circuit is that,
despite having only two inputs and one output, it is regulated by twenty-three
distinct DNA-TF configurations, two of which are more stable than others (DNA
looped states), one promoting and another blocking the expression of the output
gene. Small delays in input arrival time result in a majority of cells in the
population quickly reaching the stable state associated with the first input,
while exiting of this stable state occurs at a slow timescale. In order to mechanistically
model the behaviour of this genetic circuit, we used a rule-based modelling language,
and implemented a grid-search to find parameter combinations giving rise to long-lived
transients. Our analysis shows that in the absence of feedback, there exist path-dependent
gene regulatory mechanisms based on the long timescale of transients. The behaviour
of this toy model circuit suggests that gene regulatory networks can exploit event
timing to create phenotypes, and it opens the possibility that they could use
event timing to memorise events, without regulatory feedback. The model reveals
the importance of (i) mechanistically modelling the transitions between the different
DNA-TF states, and (ii) employing transient analysis thereof.'

text: With the recent publication by Silpe and Bassler (2019), considering phage
detection of a bacterial quorum-sensing (QS) autoinducer, we now have as many
as five examples of phage-associated intercellular communication (Table 1). Each
potentially involves ecological inferences by phages as to concentrations of surrounding
phage-infected or uninfected bacteria. While the utility of phage detection of
bacterial QS molecules may at first glance appear to be straightforward, we suggest
in this commentary that the underlying ecological explanation is unlikely to be
simple.

text: "The expression of a gene is characterised by its transcription factors and
the function processing them. If the transcription factors are not affected by
gene products, the regulating function is often represented as a combinational
logic circuit, where the outputs (product) are determined by current input values
(transcription factors) only, and are hence independent on their relative arrival
times. However, the simultaneous arrival of transcription factors (TFs) in genetic
circuits is a strong assumption, given that the processes of transcription and
translation of a gene into a protein introduce intrinsic time delays and that
there is no global synchronisation among the arrival times of different molecular
species at molecular targets.\r\n\r\nIn this paper, we construct an experimentally
implementable genetic circuit with two inputs and a single output, such that,
in presence of small delays in input arrival, the circuit exhibits qualitatively
distinct observable phenotypes. In particular, these phenotypes are long lived
transients: they all converge to a single value, but so slowly, that they seem
stable for an extended time period, longer than typical experiment duration. We
used rule-based language to prototype our circuit, and we implemented a search
for finding the parameter combinations raising the phenotypes of interest.\r\n\r\nThe
behaviour of our prototype circuit has wide implications. First, it suggests that
GRNs can exploit event timing to create phenotypes. Second, it opens the possibility
that GRNs are using event timing to react to stimuli and memorise events, without
explicit feedback in regulation. From the modelling perspective, our prototype
circuit demonstrates the critical importance of analysing the transient dynamics
at the promoter binding sites of the DNA, before applying rapid equilibrium assumptions."

text: "Decades of studies have revealed the mechanisms of gene regulation in molecular
detail. We make use of such well-described regulatory systems to explore how the
molecular mechanisms of protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions shape the
dynamics and evolution of gene regulation. \r\n\r\ni) We uncover how the biophysics
of protein-DNA binding determines the potential of regulatory networks to evolve
and adapt, which can be captured using a simple mathematical model. \r\nii) The
evolution of regulatory connections can lead to a significant amount of crosstalk
between binding proteins. We explore the effect of crosstalk on gene expression
from a target promoter, which seems to be modulated through binding competition
at non-specific DNA sites. \r\niii) We investigate how the very same biophysical
characteristics as in i) can generate significant fitness costs for cells through
global crosstalk, meaning non-specific DNA binding across the genomic background.
\r\niv) Binding competition between proteins at a target promoter is a prevailing
regulatory feature due to the prevalence of co-regulation at bacterial promoters.
However, the dynamics of these systems are not always straightforward to determine
even if the molecular mechanisms of regulation are known. A detailed model of
the biophysical interactions reveals that interference between the regulatory
proteins can constitute a new, generic form of system memory that records the
history of the input signals at the promoter. \r\n\r\nWe demonstrate how the biophysics
of protein-DNA binding can be harnessed to investigate the principles that shape
and ultimately limit cellular gene regulation. These results provide a basis for
studies of higher-level functionality, which arises from the underlying regulation.

text: 'Gene regulatory networks evolve through rewiring of individual components—that
is, through changes in regulatory connections. However, the mechanistic basis
of regulatory rewiring is poorly understood. Using a canonical gene regulatory
system, we quantify the properties of transcription factors that determine the
evolutionary potential for rewiring of regulatory connections: robustness, tunability
and evolvability. In vivo repression measurements of two repressors at mutated
operator sites reveal their contrasting evolutionary potential: while robustness
and evolvability were positively correlated, both were in trade-off with tunability.
Epistatic interactions between adjacent operators alleviated this trade-off. A
thermodynamic model explains how the differences in robustness, tunability and
evolvability arise from biophysical characteristics of repressor–DNA binding.
The model also uncovers that the energy matrix, which describes how mutations
affect repressor–DNA binding, encodes crucial information about the evolutionary
potential of a repressor. The biophysical determinants of evolutionary potential
for regulatory rewiring constitute a mechanistic framework for understanding network
evolution.'

text: Changes in gene expression are an important mode of evolution; however, the
proximate mechanism of these changes is poorly understood. In particular, little
is known about the effects of mutations within cis binding sites for transcription
factors, or the nature of epistatic interactions between these mutations. Here,
we tested the effects of single and double mutants in two cis binding sites involved
in the transcriptional regulation of the Escherichia coli araBAD operon, a component
of arabinose metabolism, using a synthetic system. This system decouples transcriptional
control from any posttranslational effects on fitness, allowing a precise estimate
of the effect of single and double mutations, and hence epistasis, on gene expression.
We found that epistatic interactions between mutations in the araBAD cis-regulatory
element are common, and that the predominant form of epistasis is negative. The
magnitude of the interactions depended on whether the mutations are located in
the same or in different operator sites. Importantly, these epistatic interactions
were dependent on the presence of arabinose, a native inducer of the araBAD operon
in vivo, with some interactions changing in sign (e.g., from negative to positive)
in its presence. This study thus reveals that mutations in even relatively simple
cis-regulatory elements interact in complex ways such that selection on the level
of gene expression in one environment might perturb regulation in the other environment
in an unpredictable and uncorrelated manner.
