“We have solid data for this phenomenon,” said Hauf, associate professor in the Department of Biological Sciences atOften upstaged by the more striking, well-publicized high-noise genes, Hauf and her team were intrigued by these ultra-low noise genes as they provide a window into the understanding of gene expression and gene expression noise.
