| Abstract | The expression of genes is inevitably subject to intracellular noise. Noise, for some regulatory networks, is constructive but detrimental to many others. The intensity of the noise is a determinant factor and the method of tuning it is of great value. In this study, we illustrated that the transcriptional delay in an incoherent feedforward loop (FFL) grants the target protein modulation the intensity of noise. Remarkably, for a wide range, the coefficient of variation (COV) of the target protein appeared to be about linear to the time span of the transcriptional delay. Without a noise-buffering method, the COV of the target protein is 0.455. While applying incoherent FFL, the COV reduced to 0.236. Then, it changed from 0.236 to 0.630 as the transcriptional delay raised from 0 to 1000 seconds. If we further increased the delay out of the linear range, the COV finally reached 0.779. In addition, we incorporated the distribution of the transcriptional delay in the delay stochastic simulation algorithm. This distribution is based on the experimental observation in the literature. The outcome suggested that the distributed delay slightly improved the ability of tuning noise. In conclusion, we demonstrated a noise-tuning method that altered only the intensity of noise without changing the deterministic steady-state behaviors. It is ready to be applied to various systems in the field of synthetic biology. The expression of genes is inevitably subject to intracellular noise.
