Transient power-law behaviour following induction distinguishes between competing models of stochastic gene expression

AG Nicoll, J Szavits-Nossan, MR Evans, R Grima - bioRxiv, 2023 - biorxiv.org
What features of transcription can be learnt by fitting mathematical models of gene
expression to mRNA count data? Given a suite of models, fitting to data selects an optimal …

[HTML][HTML] scCensus: Off-target scRNA-seq reads reveal meaningful biology

D He, SM Mount, R Patro - bioRxiv, 2024 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) provides unprecedented insights into cellular
heterogeneity. Although scRNA-seq reads from most prevalent and popular tagged-end …

[HTML][HTML] Forseti: A mechanistic and predictive model of the splicing status of scRNA-seq reads

D He, Y Gao, SS Chan, N Quintana-Parrilla, R Patro - bioRxiv, 2024 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Results: We develop Forseti, a predictive model to probabilistically assign a splicing status
to scRNA-seq reads. Our model has two key components. First, we train a binding affinity …

Joint distribution of nuclear and cytoplasmic mRNA levels in stochastic models of gene expression: analytical results and parameter inference

Y Wang, J Szavits-Nossan, Z Cao, R Grima - bioRxiv, 2024 - biorxiv.org
Stochastic models of gene expression are routinely used to explain large variability in
measured mRNA levels between cells. These models typically predict the distribution of the …
