Ge change in A0, being smaller for larger N/C ratios, which is shown in the color change at the first peak from red to green from smaller to larger N/C ratios. This change is quantitatively shown (Figure 3C). The change in the persistency of oscillation is also seen by changes in N/C ratios. At an N/C ratio of 2.9 , the color change along the time axis disappeared around at 6 hrs; after this time, the color stays green, indicating cessation of oscillation. At a larger N/C ratio of 19 , however, the periodic color change continues for more than 10 hrs indicating prolonged oscillation. These are shown quantitatively by the changes in tp and td (Figure 3E). We cannot determine tp and td at higher N/C ratios because the decays are not fitted with an exponential curve. Some plots are interrupted in the later figures for the same reason or a limited number of points in our simulation. The results indicate that the oscillation pattern is altered greatly by changes in N/C ratios. In our simulation, the smaller N/C ratios result in damped oscillation, which can be compared with the preceding study showing suppressed oscillation by reduction in the nuclear radius in the 2D model [45].oscillation pattern significantly but differently from N/C ratio and nuclear transport.The SR 3029 location of IkB synthesis alters the oscillation patternIkBs are the important determinants of the oscillation pattern of NF-kBn [29,42]. However, the exact intracellular location of their (��)-Hexaconazole syntheses is not known. Then, we ran simulations to see the effect of changing synthesis locations. The location of IkBs syntheses at the control conditions is at the nuclear membrane compartments. We changed this location to the middle and the distant locations from the nuclear membrane while keeping the amount of IkBs syntheses constant. The alteration of oscillation pattern was greater than we expected (Figure 6A); f decreases and A0 and tfp increases, respectively, as the synthesis is more distant from the nuclear membrane (Figure 6B). These simulation results indicate that the location of IkBs syntheses is also an important determinant for the NF-kBn oscillation pattern.The location of transcription in a nucleus does not alter the oscillation patternIn the simulations described thus far, transcription was assumed to occur uniformly within the nucleus. If we take a time-averaged location of a specific gene, it may distribute nearly uniformly within the nucleus. However, at some time point, a specific gene should be located somewhere in a nucleus, and more importantly, it has been suggested that the spatial fluctuation of the genome is not perfectly random but possesses some `territory’ [62]. Therefore, we ran simulations to see the effect of localized transcription in a nucleus. The center compartment of the nucleus was selected for the localized transcription of IkBs as the opposite extreme case from the control conditions. The rate of transcription was kept unchanged from the spatially integrated value in the control conditions. The simulation shows virtually no difference in the oscillation pattern by this localized transcription of IkBs (Figure S3). Thus, the oscillation pattern is not altered by the change in the locus of IkBs transcription.Rate of nuclear transport alters the oscillation patternThere are reports suggesting an increase in NPCs in cancer cells leads to an increased nuclear transport [60,61], and in addition, nuclear transport will be increased by the larger surface ar.Ge change in A0, being smaller for larger N/C ratios, which is shown in the color change at the first peak from red to green from smaller to larger N/C ratios.
