Our Project: Metabolic Wiring
This year the Edinburgh team has created 'metabolic wires' - a novel signalling mechanism for linking logic gates in different cells. By distributing a metabolic pathway among different cells, the outputs of one logic gate can be sent by a diffusible agent to the input of the next logic gate, greatly increasing the potential complexity and intelligence of a synthetic biology system.
We are also developing some 'showcase' systems to show these new signals in action.
Watch this space for updates on how we did, the systems we used to demonstrate this, and more!
If you think we could collaborate on anything, feel free to get in touch!
