Dynamical stability and accuracy of moment closure approximations for bursty gene expression with nonlinear degradation
Moment-closure methods provide a widely used approach for approximating low-order statistics of stochastic biochemical reaction networks, but the resulting closed equations may exhibit physically meaningless dynamics. Here, we systematically investigate the stability of second-order moment-closure approximations for a bursty gene expression model with nonlinear protein degradation. We consider…
