    Modular and Versatile Trans-Encoded Genetic Switches
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2020) Paul, Avishek; Warszawik, Eliza M.; Loznik, Mark; Boersma, Arnold J.; Herrmann, Andreas
    Current bacterial RNA switches suffer from lack of versatile inputs and are difficult to engineer. We present versatile and modular RNA switches that are trans-encoded and based on tRNA-mimicking structures (TMSs). These switches provide a high degree of freedom for reengineering and can thus be designed to accept a wide range of inputs, including RNA, small molecules, and proteins. This powerful approach enables control of the translation of protein expression from plasmid and genome DNA. © 2020 The Authors. Published by Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA
