Patent ID: 7816101

Claim:
A peptide synthesizer apparatus comprising: two or more sources of charged tRNA, each source positioned to sequentially provide flow of one or more charged tRNA to one or more biological assemblers at one or more first locations; and one or more computing units configured to control the two or more sources of charged tRNA, wherein the one or more computing units are further configured to, receive information representative of one or more target peptide structures; determine one or more temporal-spatial parameters for synthesizing the one or more target peptide structures based at least partially on the data, wherein the one or more temporal-spatial parameters are at least partially based on at least one of a target peptide sequence or a target nucleic acid sequence; and direct each source to sequentially provide the one or more charged tRNA to the one or more first locations based at least partially on the temporal-spatial parameters one type of charged tRNA at a time sequentially.
