2016年12月2日🏌🏻，美国莱斯大学生物工程系助理教授Jeffrey J. Tabor博士应我院吴辉副教授邀请访问杏悦2平台娱乐与生物反应器工程国家重点实验室🏖，并作题为“Rewiring the DNA binding domains of bacterial two-component system response regulator proteins”的精彩学术报告，杏悦2平台娱乐全舒教授等教师和同学参加了本次学术报告会，报告会由吴辉副教授主持🤯。

Tabor博士详细介绍了实验室合成生物学方向中针对双组份调控系统进行改造的最新研究成果🕴。巧妙地将改造策略成功地应用在微生物主要的两大类双组份调控体系中，同时此策略也能使真核和原核生物中的双组份调控系统达到互换的效果🌬。报告结束以后，与会师生就此双组份调控系统改造方法在合成生物学上的应用等方面与Tabor博士进行了深入交流📑。

Tabor's laboratory at Rice U include using light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation to control the activities in proteins inside of cells in real time, constructing synthetic transcriptional and post-translational signaling circuits, programming cells to communicate using unnatural signals, and combining all of these technologies to program synthetic multicellular behaviors. His works were published on Cell, Nature, Nature Methods, Nature Chemical Biology, ACS Nano, ACS Synth Biol, etc.
