Tuning promoter strength through RNA polymerase binding site design in Escherichia coli.

One of the paramount goals of synthetic biology is to have the ability to tune transcriptional networks to targeted levels of expression at will. As a step in that direction, we have constructed a set of 18 unique binding sites for E. coli RNA Polymerase (RNAP) δ⁷⁰ holoenzyme, designed using a model...
