Temporal profile of gene transcription noise modulated by cross-talking signal transduction pathways.

abstract：:In this paper we formulate a multi-patch multi-species model in which the per-capita emigration rate of one species depends on the density of some other species. We then focus on Turing instability to examine if and when this cross-emigration response has crucial effects. We find that the type of interaction matters g...
