allosteric transcription factor-based in vitro biosensors
Also known as: aTF-based in vitro biosensors, aTF biosensors
Taxonomy: Mechanism Branch / Architecture. Workflows sit above the mechanism and technique branches rather than replacing them.
Summary
Allosteric transcription factor (aTF)-based in vitro biosensors constitute a class of detection tools formed by the functional coupling of the ligand-binding domain of aTFs with a reporter system.

Ranked Claims
aTF-based in vitro biosensors offer high specificity and sensitivity for food contaminant monitoring.
aTF biosensors have been applied to detect various typical food contaminants and show performance advantages.
Allosteric transcription factor-based in vitro biosensors are detection tools formed by functionally coupling the ligand-binding domain of an allosteric transcription factor with a reporter system.
Engineering design of aTF-based in vitro biosensors is modular and includes molecular recognition, signal amplification, signal output, and sensing-system design.
Current aTF biosensor technology still requires improved specificity, improved stability, and progress toward commercial and on-site real-time applications.
