Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) is a transcription factor and is important for cell fate decision. The regulatory mechanism of NF-kB activation at molecular level is still unclear. We developed a mathematical model for NF-kB signal transduction system and focus on oscillatory behavior and switch-like response of NF-kB activity. Furthermore, we validated the results by biological experiments. The numerical and theoretical analysis showed that the mechanism of oscillatory behavior and switch-like response of NF-kB activity is not same but their behaviors can be interpolated by balance among amounts of molecules and reaction rates with respect to the activation. Our experiments supported the results.
