How to quantify a genetic firewall? A polarity‐based metric for genetic code engineering
Genetic code engineering aims to produce organisms that translate genetic information in a different way from that prescribed by the standard genetic code, which can
Concomitant prediction of environmental fate and toxicity of chemical compounds
The environmental fate of many functional molecules that are produced on a large scale as precursors or as additives to specialty goods (plastics, fibers, construction
The faulty SOS response of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 stems from an inefficient RecA‐LexA interplay
Pseudomonas putida strain KT2440 is very sensitive to DNA damage and displays poor homologous recombination efficiencies. Why? This work aimed to gain insight into this
Reconfiguration of metabolic fluxes in Pseudomonas putida as a response to sub-lethal oxidative stress
Pseudomonas putida is a soil bacterium that is frequently found in sites polluted with toxic chemicals. It is able to survive in these sites because of
Contextual dependencies expand the re-usability of genetic inverters
In the implementation of Boolean logic circuits in cells, the focus is mainly on the genetic components, although it must be taken into account that
Modelling co-translational dimerization for programmable nonlinearity in synthetic biology
Nonlinearity is fundamental in the performance of natural and synthetic biological networks, as many key functional motifs in microbial systems rely on nonlinear molecular dynamics.
