Patent number: 10160978Abstract: The invention relates to mammalian cells comprising at least one prokaryotic two-component signaling (TCS) pathway comprised of an activator protein A, a response regulator (RR) protein B activated by said protein A, such activation leading to an activated RR protein B, and an output gene C operably linked to a promoter. Transcription from said promoter is activated by activated RR protein B, and the expression of output gene C defines at least a first state (0, no transcription) and a second state (1, detectable transcription). The invention further relates to logic gates designed from such cells, and methods for integrating a plurality of output signals based on the cells and logic gates of the invention.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2015Date of Patent: December 25, 2018Assignee: ETH ZURICHInventors: Yaakov Benenson, Jonathan Hansen, Krishna Kumar Swaminathan

Publication number: 20180180903Abstract: A molded contact lens comprising a stiffer optic zone relative to the peripheral zone of the contact lens provides an optical element for correcting astigmatism without the need for or substantially minimizing the need for the correction of rotational misalignment. The higher elastic modulus optic zone vaults over the cornea thereby allowing a tear lens to form. The tear lens follows or assumes the shape of the back surface of the contact lens. The combination of the tear lens and the optical zone provide an optical element for correction of refractive error.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 15, 2018Publication date: June 28, 2018Inventors: Jonathan Hansen, Ryan Hawke
