Motivations
- Oscillators are already a fundamental building block in traditional engineering applications
- We wish to build a synthetic biological oscillator that can become a fundamental building block in future synthetic biological applications
- Previous oscillators have been attempted (such as the Repressilator by Elowitz and Leibler in 2000) but they all generally shared the following problems:
- Noise
- Instability
- Inflexible (i.e. lack of control over amplitude and frequency)
- Based on these past limitations, we determined the specifications for our oscillator:
- The oscillations should remain stable for greater than 10 cycles
- It should have a high signal to noise ratio
- It should be flexible (we should be able to control amplitude and frequency)
- It should have connectivity (should be able to be integrated into another system)
Part interface
(describe your black-box approach, define properties of inputs/outputs)
