摘要
In this paper, we integrate transcriptional and-posttranscriptional regulation into microRNA-mediated incoherent feedforward motifs and analyze their dynamical behaviors and functions. The analysis show that the behaviors of the system are almost uninfluenced by the varying input in certain ranges and the introducing of delay and noise. The results indicate that microRNA-mediated incoherent feedforward motifs greatly enhance the robustness of gene regulation.
