A chemically fueled non-enzymatic bistable network

Although bistability is common in biology, it is very difficult to design de novo into synthetic systems. Here, the authors present an experimental and theoretical analysis of a chemical network that displays bistable behavior under certain far-from-equilibrium conditions, and map the parameter spac...

description Although bistability is common in biology, it is very difficult to design de novo into synthetic systems. Here, the authors present an experimental and theoretical analysis of a chemical network that displays bistable behavior under certain far-from-equilibrium conditions, and map the parameter space in which bistability operates.
