Figure 4From: Noise propagation through extracellular signaling leads to fluctuations in gene expressionDistribution of bound interferon receptors (IFNAR) in cells with and without IFN-β mRNA. (A) For cells containing IFN-β mRNA and (B) for cells with no IFN-β mRNA plotted at 6 hours. The larger fraction above 200 in (A) indicates the importance of autocrine signaling at early times. The distribution of bound IFNAR at 11 hours post-infection is displayed in (C) for cells with and in (D) for cells without IFN-β mRNA.Back to article page
