Rethinking Gene Regulatory Networks in Light of Alternative Splicing, Post-Translational Modifications, and Intrinsically Disordered Protein Domains

Models for genetic regulation and cell fate specification characteristically assume that gene regulatory networks (GRNs) are essentially deterministic and exhibit multiple stable states specifying alternate, but pre-figured cell fates. Mounting evidence shows, however, that most eukaryotic precurso...
