Future Prospects

Fos and Jun complementtion and half YFP can have a viiety of applications. One that we were thinking about was to fuse either Fos or Jun with an element of the flagella and that would stick to the membrane of a next cell, hence forming a chain. By fusing to different membrane proteins,eentually one could use bacteria as building blocksfvo entire strucures that work in synchrony. What still has to be worked out is their short life span.
