This technology will provide the agri-tech industry with an efficient way of coordinating the expression of multiple genes in a targeted, environmentally responsive and tissue-specific manner, giving way to the development of new and accessible food products on a global scale.
A research team at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have devised a novel tri-pointed synthetic production strategy for transcription regulators by utilising key elements of yeast and plant species. The use of these elements allows the process to cover a diverse library of transcriptional regulators to control eukaryotic transcription. This technology will provide the agri-tech industry with an efficient way of coordinating the expression of multiple genes in a targeted, environmentally responsive and tissue-specific manner, giving way to the development of new and accessible food products on a global scale.
