EXP-LA: Collaborative Research: Engineering response circuitry in a plant explosive detector system

0731029 Medford这是一个使用绿色植物作为廉价爆炸物探测器的项目。这些植物将使用计算机设计的接收器来感知爆炸物，并通过合成信号转导系统将信息传输到原子核。触发基因电路将通过产生一个定量分析的抑制物反馈系统来构建。具体地说，由于自然产生的成分具有非常不同的动力学特性，遗传电路的数学建模将被用于在植物中产生功能触发电路。

0731029MedfordThis is a project to use green plants as inexpensive detectors for explosives. The plants will sense explosives using computer designed receptors and transmit this information to the nucleus via a synthetic signal transduction system. The trigger genetic circuitry will be constructed by producing a feedback system of repressors that are quantitatively analyzed. Specifically, because naturally occurring components have widely varying kinetic characteristics, mathematical modeling of genetic circuits, will be employed to produce a functional trigger circuit in plants.
