Engineered Orthogonal Quorum Sensing Systems for Synthetic Gene Regulation in Escherichia coli

Engineered Orthogonal Quorum Sensing Systems for Synthetic Gene Regulation in Escherichia coli

Gene regulators that are controlled by membrane-permeable compounds called homoserine lactones (HSLs) have become popular tools for building synthetic gene networks that coordinate behaviors across populations of engineered bacteria. Synthetic HSL-signaling systems are derived from natural DNA and p...
