The rational design of biological networks with prescribed functions is limited to gene circuits of a few genes. Larger networks involve complex interactions with many parameters and the use of automated computational tools can be very valuable. We propose a new tool to design transcriptional networks with targeted behavior that could be used to better understand the design principles of genetic circuits.
