Capturing Multicellular System Designs Using Synthetic Biology Open Language (SBOL)

Synthetic Biology Open Language (SBOL) Version 2.1.0

Synthetic biology builds upon the techniques and successes of genetics, molecular biology, and metabolic engineering by applying engineering principles to the design of biological systems. The field still faces substantial challenges, including long development times, high rates of failure, and poor reproducibility. One method to ameliorate these problems would be to improve the exchange of inf...

SBOL Visual: A Graphical Language for Genetic Designs

Synthetic Biology Open Language (SBOL) Visual is a graphical standard for genetic engineering. It consists of symbols representing DNA subsequences, including regulatory elements and DNA assembly features. These symbols can be used to draw illustrations for communication and instruction, and as image assets for computer-aided design. SBOL Visual is a community standard, freely available for per...

Developing Robust Synthetic Biology Designs Using a Microfluidic Robot Scientist

Synthetic Biology is an emerging discipline that is providing a conceptual framework for biological engineering based on principles of standardisation, modularity and abstraction. For this approach to achieve the ends of becoming a widely applicable engineering discipline it is critical that the resulting biological devices are capable of functioning according to a given specification in a robu...
