Reducing leaky gene expression is critical for improving protein yield of recombinant bacteria and stability of engineered cellular circuits in synthetic biology. The image illustrates a repurposed, modular CRISPRi system that attenuates leaky gene expression from a promoter. The corresponding publication establishes a new application of CRISPRi in genomic engineering to improve the control of recombinant gene expression. Image credit: Lia Wesp. This is reported by Sean R. McCutcheon, Kwan Lun Chiu, Daniel D. Lewis, and Cheemeng Tan, article number 1700167 .
