Light-induced peptide replication controls logic operations in small networks

Zehavit Dadon, Manickasundaram Samiappan, Eliya Y. Safranchik, Gonen Ashkenasy

Light up the replication, please! De novo designed coiled coil proteins can be triggered by light (see figure) to control their self-replication of the templates (T) and thereby induce selective product formation within small chemical networks.
