Aptamer Regulated Transcription For In-Vitro Sensing And Transduction

NIST Inventors

Samuel Schaffter

Described are nucleic acid transcription templates, systems and methods for detection and measurement of molecules and biomolecules (e.g., biomarkers). Particularly, systems and methods utilize a transcription template with an aptamer domain configured to bind a molecule of interest to regulate

CTRSD Gate And Performing Co-Transcriptional Encoding

NIST Inventors

Samuel Schaffter

A method for the production and use of scalable co-transcriptional RNA strand displacement (ctRSD) circuits using RNA toehold exchange gates is described. The ctRSD circuits described address the limitations of existing DNA-based strand displacement circuits by isothermally producing circuit
