Reprogramming Bacteria to Seek and Destroy a Herbicide
A major goal of synthetic biology is to reprogram cells to perform complex tasks. Here we show how a combination of in vitro and in vivo selection rapidly identifies a synthetic riboswitch that activates protein translation in response to the herbicide atrazine. We further demonstrate that this riboswitch can reprogram bacteria to migrate in the presence of atrazine. Finally, we show that incor...
متن کاملSeek and Destroy: Targeted Resource Depletion Attacks on Sensor Networks
Denial of service attacks can be catastrophic in wireless sensor networks. Typical denial of service attacks consist of either communications jamming or resource depletion through forcing continuous stimuli and communication between motes on the network. Localization is another interesting challenge in the world of sensor networks. Many applications utilizing sensor networks require that the an...
متن کاملSurface-based DNA computing operations: DESTROY and READOUT.
DNA computing on surfaces is where complex combinatorial mixtures of DNA molecules are immobilized on a substrate and subsets are tagged and enzymatically modified (DESTROY) in repeated cycles of the DNA computation. A restriction enzyme has been chosen for the surface DESTROY operation. For the READOUT operation, both cycle sequencing and PCR amplification followed by addressed array hybridiza...
متن کاملAcoustic Communication for Medical Nanorobots
Communication among microscopic robots (nanorobots) can coordinate their activities for biomedical tasks. The feasibility of in vivo ultrasonic communication is evaluated for micronsize robots broadcasting into various types of tissues. Frequencies between 10 MHz and 300 MHz give the best tradeoff between efficient acoustic generation and attenuation for communication over distances of about 10...
متن کاملDestroy and localize
itotic spindle positioning involves a con-formational switch in LGN, the mammalian version of the invertebrate Pins protein, duces a spindle rocking that represents the first genetically manipulable model for studying spindle positioning in vertebrates. The switch operates via the opening of LGN, which can normally fold back onto itself. The unfolding is triggered by binding to either membrane-...
