Genetic Network

we design the following circuit, based on Gardner and al. Gardner's [1] work and balagadd and al. on Predator–Prey ecosystem [2].



It can be divided into four parts: the Toggle Switch, the Quorum Sensing, the Coloration and the post-transcriptional regulation. (Coloration is included in Quorum Sensing page)



Table of content

In the following pages, you can find the explanation about the differents sub-parts of our genetic network. Moreover we explane to you the importance of both to our project.

For an introduction to the genetic circuit, see our tutorials in the human practice section or download them here :

Toggle Switch:




Quorum Sensing :
The Quorum Sensing
Coloration


Post-transcriptional regulation :
A post-transcriptional regulation system
The RsmA translational regulation system
The rpoS regulation system



You can find the results of our biological experiments in the results page .
