We aim to develop a light-controlled 3D-printer by innovative utilization of optogenetics. As a first step, we want to develop a genetic logical AND-gate sensitive to light of two different wavelengths (e.g. blue and red light). The bacteria are then immobilized in a transparent gel matrix, where they can be precisely actuated when hit by both blue and red light at the same time. If both of these inputs are positive, gene expression is induced. Various different gene products can be expressed using this system.

We give an short introduction into the topic and explain how we came up with our idea.
Here the functionality of our project is described in a more detailed fashion.
A short perspective how our AND-Gate could be used in future applications.
This Section gives an overview over the created parts and characterised BioBricks.
