− | A big problem biologists encounter is the uncertainty of bonding especially in our design where zinc fingers bind to cells. Therefore it is important to come up with a model which can calculate the number of cell and zinc finger binding sites required for a given output. This page discusses this and shows a program designed to dictate concentrations for the biologists to use.<br> | + | A big problem biologists encounter is the uncertainty of bonding especially in our design where zinc fingers bind to cells.

Once we had a method of calculating the concentration of cells needed we had to model the number of cells required to make a certain shape. We also needed to invent a novel approach to creating 2D shapes using cells, this page discusses bonding them to a longer string of DNA to form a pattern. | Once we had a method of calculating the concentration of cells needed we had to model the number of cells required to make a certain shape.
