Highlights•The emergent properties of the urease-esterase reaction network are investigated•The antagonistic enzymatic generates pH waveforms in batch•Front propagation and sol-gel transition fueled by network•One-cycle oscillation is realized giant unilamellar vesiclesSummaryInvestigating designing networks their phenomena backbone systems chemistry. Designing chemical oscillators homogeneous utilizing reactions challenging due to consumption substrates over one cycle. Here, we show that an comprising urea-urease ester-esterase can generate temporal variations a batch. We developed coupled kinetic model elucidate mechanism accurately captures experimentally observed variation time. To demonstrate remarkable potential network, expanded on this discovery generating front presenting several applications coupling fuel pH-dependent processes (gelation pH-sensitive monomers emulsion-vesicle transformation). By employing strategy reactions, engineered single pulse cell-sized microcompartments, which could contribute developing synthetic cells with multiple functions.Graphical abstract
