Timing and Variability of Galactose Metabolic Gene Activation Depend on the Rate of Environmental Change
Fig 4
Gal1p accumulation changes non-monotonically with glucose depletion rate.
A) Average accumulation time as a function of the depletion time (error bars represent SD). B) The standard deviation of the accumulation time as a function of the depletion time. In fast and slow depletion schemes, the accumulation of Gal1p is highly variable, and achieves a minimum at intermediate depletion rates. Error bars represent the standard deviation of the measurement as calculated with a bootstrapping method.
