Bio LOGIC
Logic Orthogonal gRNA Implemented Circuits
Engineering transcriptional logic gates to program cellular behavior remains an important challenge for synthetic biology. Currently, genetic circuits reproducing digital logic are limited in scalability and robustness by output discrepancies and crosstalk between transcriptional pathways. We propose to address these issues using RNA-guided dCas9 fused to a transcription activation domain as a programmable transcription factor.

iGEM is all about Biobricks. Here is our contribution to this expanding library.
Policy and Practices
Ethics
Is working on the genome ethically correct? We tried to answer to this question.
Safety
Doing safe work with small organisms can be dangerous. Here is what we did to protect ourselves and the environment.
