Abstract
Recent advances in synthetic post-translational protein circuits are significantly impacting the landscape of biomimicry engineering. However, designing sustained dynamic phenomena in these circuits remains an outstanding challenge. Inspired by the KaiABC system regulating the circadian clock in cyanobacteria, we develop two experimentally realizable post-translational oscillators. The oscillators rely on a small number of components interacting only through reversible binding and phosphorylation/dephosphorylation reactions.
