Directed evolution of the PcaV allosteric transcription factor to generate a biosensor for aromatic aldehydes
Abstract Background Transcription factor-based biosensors are useful tools for the detection of metabolites and industrially valuable molecules, and present many potential applications in biotechnology and biomedicine. However, the most common approach to develop biosensors relies on employing a lim...
