Abstract

A key challenge in inferring the structure and dynamics of gene regulatory networks is the representation of various sources of stochasticity in mathematical models. In this work, we propose a modified stochastic Michaelis-Menten model to better capture the complex molecular mechanisms involved in gene regulation. We show that Bayesian sequential inference methods can be used to estimate gene expression values when utilizing this complex model. We also study the effect of various types of noise sources that arise from biological reactions and environmental fluctuations. We also extend these models to include time-varying kinetic order parameters so that they may be used for inference of time-varying gene regulatory networks.
