Plant synthetic promoters and transcription factors

- Synthetic promoters and transcription factors are key enabling tools for plant synthetic biology.
- Type, copy number and spacing of motifs are important for synthetic promoter engineering.
- Various DNA binding and effector domains are parts for synthetic transcription factor engineering.
- They can be paired for coordinated expression of multiple genes for metabolic engineering.
- They can also be paired for a dynamic transcriptional control of synthetic networks.
