Engineering orthogonal dual transcription factors for multi-input synthetic promoters

Genetic circuits usually employ the same set of transcription factors which can act via repression or activation of the target promoter. Here the authors present dual activator-repressor switches, designed via directed evolution, for orthogonal logic gates and multi-input circuit architectures.
