Abstract.
Principles of feedback control have been shown to naturally arise in biological systems and successfully applied to build synthetic circuits. In this work we consider Biochemical Reaction Networks (CRNs) as a paradigm for modelling
biochemical systems and provide the first implementation of a derivative component in CRNs. That is, given an input signal represented by the concentration level of some species, we build a CRN that produces as output the concentration of two species whose difference is the derivative of the input signal. By relying on this component, we present a CRN implementation of a feedback control loop with Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller and apply the resulting control architecture to regulate the protein expression in a microRNA regulated gene expression model.
