They can be easily engineered to bind to any sequence of interest. By controlling RiboTALs' induction through riboswitches, we have demonstrated their ability to be regulated at the translational level. Also, by switching out the type of riboswitch, there is potential for the use of different inducers.<br></br> We also created a Biobrick Characterization Data Depot for more thorough characterization of the Registry's Biobricks. We hope that future iGEM teams may use this database to better understand a Biobrick's functionality.</p>

Welcome

Welcome to the 2013 UC Davis iGEM Wiki!

We have created a novel class of transcription factors known as RiboTALs. We sought to address the constraints placed on circuit design by the limited number of well characterized promoters at our disposal, and their respective transcription factors. Our device is a hybrid system composed of two parts: Transcriptional Activator-Like (TAL) effectors which can be engineered to bind to and repress any sequence of interest and riboswitches that can respond to any inducer molecule due to their engineerable and modular aptamer binding domains.

We also designed and implemented a Biobrick characterization database called The Depot to promote sharing and openness in iGEM.
