Two New Plasmid Post-segregational Killing Mechanisms for the Implementation of Synthetic Gene Networks in Escherichia coli
Summary: Plasmids are the workhorse of both industrial biotechnology and synthetic biology, but ensuring they remain in bacterial cells is a challenge. Antibiotic selection cannot be used to stabilize plasmids in most real-world applications, and inserting dynamical gene networks into the genome rem...
