     <p><a TITLE="The Controller is an integrated genetic circuit comprised of two plasmids that allows stable maintenance of the system's various operons on a large single-copy plasmid in a dormant state. Upon induction, the copy number of the operons and their transcription increase 100-fold resulting in a dramatic increase in protein expression." href="https://2007.igem.org/Berkeley_UC_SystemController" class="style28">SystemController</a></p>
