Delay-induced transient increase and heterogeneity in gene expression in negatively auto-regulated gene circuits.
A generic feature in all intracellular biochemical processes is the time required to complete the whole sequence of reactions to yield any observable quantity--from gene expression to circadian rhythms. This widespread phenomenon points towards the importance of time delay in biological functions. T...
