We developed a new CID module that can be reprogrammed to bind diverse ligands. It works very well in plants, and we used it to make plant-based biosensors. W/ @LabWheeldon, T. Whitehead, @NusinowLab, @bvolkie, @BeltranJBio, https://t.co/5LaJx33wWN

@CarlDenard 4 to 8k for the oligos depending on genome size and fold-coverage. Add supplies/kits for cloning and NGS to characterize. Total ~10k+.
For S cerevisiae and E. coli, libraries may already be available. Other microbes might take some time to develop, but this is accessible
