Nucleic acid aptamers are an expandable toolkit of sensors and regulators. To employ aptamer regulators within nonequilibrium molecular networks, the aptamer–ligand …
Precise control over the nucleation, growth, and termination of self-assembly processes is a fundamental tool for controlling product yield and assembly dynamics. Mechanisms for …
Life is sustained by a variety of cyclic processes such as cell division, muscle contraction, and neuron firing. The periodic signals powering these processes often direct a variety of …
We provide necessary and sufficient structural conditions for multistationarity and oscillations in aggregate monotone systems, defined as the interconnection of stable …
Biomolecular circuits with two distinct and stable steady states have been identified as essential components in a wide range of biological networks, with a variety of mechanisms …
A dynamical network is comprised of a finite number of subsystems, each having its own dynamics, which interact according to a given interconnection topology. Dynamical networks …
We design a new negative feedback molecular oscillator and study its properties analytically and numerically. This oscillator is composed of two synthetic genes interconnected through …
The CRISPR/Cas-based genome editing system has provided a powerful tool for control of gene activity within cells. Here, we model an experimentally plausible architecture …
We model an experimentally plausible implementation of a synthetic RNA-based biochemical toggle switch proposed in previous work by the authors. We show that the …
