The numerical results show that the optical ram-wave at fading loops has better performance, and the eye diagram still keeps open when optical mm-wave signal is transmitted over 98 km.展开更多

We measured whole-genome expression dynamics by introducing a transient perturbation and establishing a perturbation and recovery system in Drosophila larvae. We inhibited all transcription and assayed transcriptomes at several time points during recovery from inhibition. We performed these experiments in the wild type and mi RNA-deficient genetic backgrounds. Consistent with theories about mi RNAs’ function in stabilizing the transcriptome, we find that attenuating mi RNA expression leads to weak impairment in degradation of targets but strong destabilization of target genes when transcription is re-activated. We further fitted a model that captures the essential aspects of transcription dynamics in our experiments and found that the mi RNA target transcripts uniformly overshoot the original steady state as they recover from a general inhibition of transcription if global mi RNA levels are reduced. Collectively, our results provide experimental evidence for the idea that mi RNAs act cumulatively to stabilize the transcriptional regulatory network. We therefore found a promising approach to assess the effect of these molecules on transcription dynamics.展开更多
