Biosensor libraries harness large classes of binding domains for construction of allosteric transcriptional regulators

Bacterially encoded environmental sensor proteins are potentially a rich source of transcriptional control but only a few have been harnessed for biotechnological applications. Here the authors develop a general strategy for designing custom-made monogenic synthetic sensors and validate the approach...

Sumario:Bacterially encoded environmental sensor proteins are potentially a rich source of transcriptional control but only a few have been harnessed for biotechnological applications. Here the authors develop a general strategy for designing custom-made monogenic synthetic sensors and validate the approach by designing two sense-and-respond regulators for benzoate.
