The developed technology consists of two small RNAs, which can be configured to target any gene by simply changing the sequence of the RNAs. The expression of the two RNAs controls the silencing of the target gene and can even target multiple targets.

Vision

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

Project

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

Background

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