Vision

Gene knockout is a fundamental technique in biology. It is currently a time-consuming process restricted to nonessential genes a few bacteria. For more perspectives go to project vision.

Project

In this project a novel small RNA technology for gene silencing in bacteria is developed. We applied molecular biology, bioinformatics and mathematical modeling. For more information go to project overview.

Background

To help understand the science of the project important concepts are explained. This covers small RNA and more advanced topics. To get informed go to background.
