The tRNA amber diffusion
What we call a tRNA amber is a transfer RNA which anticodon is complementary with a stop codon and especially with an amber stop codon i.e. UAG. Our idea was to use the nanotubes to allow a receiver cell to translate a mRNA containing an amber mutation. The emitter cell will produce this mutated transfer RNA (we mutated a YtRNA for it to recognise the stop codon) and the receiver cell will then be able to translate a protein which gene contain an amber mutation. This protein will part of a reporter system.
We summed up this principle in the scheme below:
We are now designing precisely the primers and the missing bricks.
