Abstract excerpt
One problem with synthetic genes in genetically engineered organisms is that these foreign DNAs will eventually lose their functions over evolutionary time in absence of selective pressures. This general limitation can restrain the long-term study and industrial application of synthetic genetic circuits. Previous studies have shown that because of their crucial regulatory functions, prokaryotic promoters in...
