Abstract

A proximity dependent split T7 RNAP (RNA polymerase) sensor using continuous molecular evolution is described. The versatility of the platform is described by creating robust light and small molecule-responsive genetic sensors. The activity-responsive RNAP platform dramatically simplifies and expands genetic circuit creation, and opens new opportunities in protein engineering, synthetic biology, and bioengineering.
