Reprogramming Bacteria to Seek and Destroy a Herbicide
A major goal of synthetic biology is to reprogram cells to perform complex tasks. Here we show how a combination of in vitro and in vivo selection rapidly identifies a synthetic riboswitch that activates protein translation in response to the herbicide atrazine. We further demonstrate that this riboswitch can reprogram bacteria to migrate in the presence of atrazine. Finally, we show that incor...
متن کاملSeek and Destroy: Targeted Resource Depletion Attacks on Sensor Networks
Denial of service attacks can be catastrophic in wireless sensor networks. Typical denial of service attacks consist of either communications jamming or resource depletion through forcing continuous stimuli and communication between motes on the network. Localization is another interesting challenge in the world of sensor networks. Many applications utilizing sensor networks require that the an...
متن کاملDelPhiPKa web server: predicting pKa of proteins, RNAs and DNAs
UNLABELLED A new pKa prediction web server is released, which implements DelPhi Gaussian dielectric function to calculate electrostatic potentials generated by charges of biomolecules. Topology parameters are extended to include atomic information of nucleotides of RNA and DNA, which extends the capability of pKa calculations beyond proteins. The web server allows the end-user to protonate the ...
متن کاملHide and Seek: Protein-coding Sequences Inside “Non-coding” RNAs
Muscle cells are critically dependent on calcium homeostasis. Without having the right amount of calcium ions just on the spot and coordinated in between muscle cells, no contraction can take place. Therefore, calcium homeostasis is one of the critical regulatory mechanisms in all muscle cells, including skeletal muscle and heart [1,2]. Sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca adenosine triphosphatase (S...
متن کاملA multifaceted FISH approach to study endogenous RNAs and DNAs in native nuclear and cell structures.
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is not a singular technique, but a battery of powerful and versatile tools for examining the distribution of endogenous genes and RNAs in precise context with each other and in relation to specific proteins or cell structures. This unit offers the details of highly sensitive and successful protocols that were initially developed largely in our lab and h...
