Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Previous models of traffic flow of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) during transcription were restricted to one dimension along the DNA template. Here we modeled an application of traffic flow that allows preferential paths of different dimensions only restricted to visit some transit points. According to its position, an RNAPII protein molecule prefers paths obeying two types of time-evolution rules. One is an asymmetric simple exclusion process along DNA, and the other is a three-dimensional jump between transit points in DNA where RNAPIIs are staying. Simulations based on our model, and comparison experimental results, reveal how RNAPII molecules are distributed at the DNA-loop-formation-related protein binding sites as well as CTCF insulator proteins. As time passes after the stimulation, the RNAPII density at these sites becomes higher. Apparent far-distance jumps in one dimension are realized by short-range three-dimensional jumps between DNA loops.
