Tools for engineering coordinated system behaviour in synthetic microbial consortia

The engineering of synthetic microbial communities necessitates the use of synthetic, orthogonal cell-to-cell communication channels. Here the authors present a library of characterised AHL-receiver devices and a software tool for the automatic identification of non-interfering chemical communicatio...
