  • Abstract
    It was theoretically shown that impedance-like effects, called retroactivity, in biomolecular circuits can significantly impact the behavior of a system. In this paper, we quantify the effect of retroactivity on the transfer function of a phosphorylation system after linearization of its nonlinear model about a steady state. Our analysis shows that retroactivity shifts the poles of the transfer function toward the low frequency.
