Trep Fig 4.11b: Expression dynamics of Z in an incoherent type-1 FFL with repression coefficients F=2,5,20. The repression coefficient is the ratio of the maximal expression without active repressor to the steady-state expression with active repressor. Trep is the time when repression begins, and is the moment of maximal Z concentration.

Kyz Time Fig 4.15: Dynamics of the I4-FFL following a step of Sx. In the presence of Sx, protein X is active and activates Z production but represses production of Y. When Y levels decay below the activation coefficient Kyz, the concentration of Z begins to drop. Production and decay rates are βZ=1, αz= αy=1,F=10. The signal Sy is present throughout.
Fi g 4.16: On the evolution of the FFLs. (a) The V-shaped pattern in which X and Y regulate Z is strongly selected because it allows regulation based on two inputs. The edge from X to Y (white arrow) must be selected based on the basis of an additional dynamical functions (e.g. sign sensitive delay, acceleration, pulse generation). (b) In many cases homologous genes Z and Z' in different organisms are regulated in a FFL in response to the same stimuli, but the two regulators X and Y in the FFL are not homologous to the regulators X' and Y'. Homology means sufficient similarity in the genes sequence to indicate that The genes have a common ancestor. (a) (b) X X Y Y non- homologous X’ X non- homologous Y Y’ Z Z Z Z ’ homologous

Fig 5.2 A single-input module (SIM) regulating a three-step metabolic pathway. The master repressor R represses a group of genes that encode for enzymes, E1,E2 E3 (each on a different operon). These enzymes catalyze the conversion of substrate S0 to S1 to S2 culminating in the product S3. The product S3 binds to R, and increases the probability that R is in its active state R*, in which it binds the promoters to repress the production of enzymes. This closes a negative feedback loop, where high levels of S3 lead to a reduction in its rate of production. R Gene E2 Gene E3 Gene E1 E1 E2 E3 S0 S1 S2 S3 product
Fig 5.3 The SIM can generate temporal programs of expression. As the activity of X gradually rises, it crosses the different thresholds for each target promoter in a defined order. When X activity declines, it crosses the thresholds in reverse order (last-in-first out or LIFO order). Source: shen-orr nature genetics 2002
