Reprogramming a cell to express a foreign gene is relatively straightforward. However, reprogramming a cell to express multiple foreign genes is far more complex, especially if trying to exert control over the interplay between these genes. Now, researchers led by Yuansheng Yang of the A*STAR Bioprocessing Technology Institute, Singapore, have developed a strategy to finely control the relative activity of multiple genes in parallel.
