A modular degron library for synthetic circuits in mammalian cells

One method of controlling protein degradation is through the use of degrons. Here the authors present a toolbox of characterised degrons as a library to fine-tune biological gene-expression systems. Its application is demonstrated by a set of tunable synthetic pulse generators in mammalian cells.
