Gene syntax also affects the behavior of genetic circuits, and contributes to unpredictable outcomes in genetic networks.

Poor expression of fusions. Check for expression of GFP fusions on SDS-PAGE. Vary concentrations of inducer to obtain roughly stoichiometric levels of expression. We find that 0–20 μM IPTG and ...

You know those little glow-in-the-dark stars that dot the ceilings of children’s rooms? Yeah, I didn’t have stars. Instead, I ...

Researchers suggest the bacteria could be designed to detect pollution or nutrients, acting as sensors to help farmers ...

This valuable study shows that locomotion-related modulations in the mouse visual cortex are not uniform but primarily affect neurons in muscarinic receptor-negative patches, which receive projections ...

Engineers have made bacteria to produce hyperspectral signals that can be detected as far as 90 meters away. Their work could lead to the development of bacterial sensors for agricultural and other ...

Systems analysis is the study of a complex system’s interacting parts, while keeping a eye on their function in the integrated whole. Systems analysis is often called upon to evaluate the safety ...
