  | Kill switch
  | Open source, web based program that involves model-guided cellular engineering where new metabolic functions can be added to existing microorganisms.
  | '''''Kill switch.''''' Our kill switch is designed by inserting an antimicrobial peptide (AMP) gene into E.Coli
*It takes a user-defined input compound, output compound, and weighting scheme and determines the ideal pathway from the starting to the ending compound

  |By '''''limiting ATP produced''''' we lessen the chances of a cell growing vigorously and being a potential danger to the environment.
* The actual means to prevent this is by creating a script that will analyze ATP consumption and production.
*With this information, you are able to adjust the ATP metabolism in whatever way you want.
*You will be able to keep the production low enough so cell processes can still occur and allow the cell to grow to an extent but not high enough that it can potentially grow out of control
