Stochastic gene expression, illustration C018 / 0906
Stochastic gene expression, illustration. Every cell in an organism contains every single gene that makes up the organisms genome. However, they are not all active (expressed) in each cell. Different genes are expressed in different cells and also under different cellular conditions. The concentration of transcriptional regulators can also have an effect on which genes are expressed, and how strongly they are expressed, this is known as stochastic gene expression

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Stochastic gene expression, illustration C018 / 0906" by Claudia Stocker from Science Photo Library beautifully captures the complexity of gene expression within an organism. The image showcases the intricate workings of a cell, highlighting the concept that every single gene in an organism's genome is present within each cell. However, not all genes are active or expressed in every cell. The vibrant orange hues symbolize the activity and dynamism occurring within the cellular environment. This illustration emphasizes that different genes are expressed in different cells and under varying cellular conditions. It also highlights how the concentration of transcriptional regulators influences which genes are expressed and to what extent they are activated. Through this artwork, we gain insight into the fascinating world of biology and genetics. It reminds us that specialization and differentiation occur at a genetic level, contributing to the diversity observed among cells throughout our bodies. This image serves as a reminder of the crucial role played by stochastic gene expression in shaping biological systems. It underscores concepts such as epigenetics, systems biology, biophysics, and genetic specialization - all fundamental aspects explored through scientific research. Claudia Stocker's artistic portrayal successfully conveys both aesthetic appeal and scientific significance. As viewers engage with this artwork, they are invited to delve deeper into understanding one of nature's most intriguing phenomena – stochasticity in gene expression.
