  2. Biochemical switches in the cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biochemical_switches_in...

    Positive feedback loops play a role by switching cells from low to high Cdk-activity. The interaction between the two types of loops is evident in mitosis. While positive feedback initiates mitosis, a negative feedback loop promotes the inactivation of the cyclin-dependent kinases by the anaphase-promoting complex. This example clearly shows ...

  3. Transcription translation feedback loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcription_translation...

    Secondary feedback loops interact with this primary feedback loop. CLOCKWORK ORANGE (CWO) binds the E-boxes to act as a direct competitor of CYC-CLK, therefore inhibiting transcription. PAR-DOMAIN PROTEIN 1 ε (PDP1ε) is a feedback activator and VRILLE (VRI) is a feedback inhibitor of the Clk promoter, and their expression is activated by dCLK ...

  4. Positive feedback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_feedback

    Audio feedback (also known as acoustic feedback, simply as feedback, or the Larsen effect) is a special kind of positive feedback which occurs when a sound loop exists between an audio input (for example, a microphone or guitar pickup) and an audio output (for example, a loudly-amplified loudspeaker).

  5. Cybernetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cybernetics

    An example of positive feedback is when a microphone picks up the sound that it is producing through a speaker, which is then played through the speaker, and so on. In addition to feedback, cybernetics is concerned with other forms of circular processes including: feedforward , recursion , and reflexivity .

  6. Feed forward (control) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feed_forward_(control)

    In systems theory, an open system is a feed forward system that does not have any feedback loop to control its output. In contrast, a closed system uses on a feedback loop to control the operation of the system. In an open system, the output of the system is not fed back into the input to the system for control or operation.

  7. Regulation of gene expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_of_gene_expression

    Repressor/Inducer: an activation of a sensor results in the change of expression of a gene; negative feedback: the gene product downregulates its own production directly or indirectly, which can result in keeping transcript levels constant/proportional to a factor; inhibition of run-away reactions when coupled with a positive feedback loop

  8. Cell signaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_signaling

    Complex multi-component signal transduction pathways provide opportunities for feedback, signal amplification, and interactions inside one cell between multiple signals and signaling pathways. [citation needed] A specific cellular response is the result of the transduced signal in the final stage of cell signaling.

  9. Motor control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_control

    Closed loop control [24]: 186 is a feedback based mechanism of motor control, where any act on the environment creates some sort of change that affects future performance through feedback. Closed loop motor control is best suited to continuously controlled actions, but does not work quickly enough for ballistic actions.
