Short Name: T11_dCas9SynProm Title: Development of synthetic promoters inducible by dCasEV2.1 system Description: The aim of this work is to design a range of synthetic promoters with negligible basal expression that are activated by using the "dead" Cas9 activation system developed in our lab (dCasEV2.1, Selma et al., 2019). Such tool will then be used for creating synthetic regulatory cascades where the expression of the genes for the pheromone biosynthesis can be controlled by a single dCas9 ...
