Exploring the contextual sensitivity of factors that determine cell-to-cell variability in receptor-mediated apoptosis.

Stochastic fluctuations in gene expression give rise to cell-to-cell variability in protein levels which can potentially cause variability in cellular phenotype. For TRAIL (TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) variability manifests itself as dramatic differences in the time between ligand exposure...
