My research, in particular, focuses on studying noise in gene expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae using a dual report system. The aim of the project is to calculate the noise due to mRNA and protein decay dynamics and to study different sequence features of mRNA that play into the regulation of noise. This would be done by tracking the GFP fluorescence in yeast upon treatment with various transcription and translation inhibitors.
