Plasmid Design Tool

Overview

We have designed an online tool where a user can create their Cellular Logbook in silico by giving a backbone sequence and selecting one or more sensors manually or predefined from the parts registry database. An algorithm then computes one or more plasmids, taking into account the rules we use for our real life Cellular Logbook, and outputs the appropriate genbank files as well as the visualized version of the plasmid. The tool will also generate all possible permutations of gel bands which can be used as a read-out sheet for the gel electrophoresis results. By using this tool we are able to quickly design a plasmid with multiple sensors.

In order to grant the user a quick and dynamic overview of the plasmids that were just designed, a visualization of each plasmid is available with just a click on a button. Each of these visualized plasmids shows the specific features of that plasmid by color code. Hovering over each feature gives additional information, and clicking on a feature gives its DNA sequence.
