Abstract
This paper describes the design, modeling and realization of a synthetic in vitro circuit that aims at regulating the rate of mRNA transcription. Two DNA templates are designed to interact through their transcripts, creating negative feedback loops that will equate their transcription rates at steady state. A mathematical model is developed for this circuit, consisting of a set of ODEs derived from the mass action laws and Michaelis-Menten kinetics involving all the present chemical species. The DNA strands were accordingly designed, following thermodynamics principles and minimizing unwanted interactions. Preliminary experimental results show that the circuit is performing the expected task, by matching at steady state the transcription rates of the two DNA templates.
