Nonlinearity arising from noncooperative transcription factor binding enhances negative feedback and promotes genetic oscillations
We study the effects of multiple binding sites in the promoter of a genetic oscillator. We evaluate the regulatory function of a promoter with multiple binding sites in the absence of cooperative binding, and consider different hypotheses for how the number of bound repressors affects transcription...
