Ethical Debates on Synthetic Biology
Background: As an emerging interdisciplinary area of science with a multitude of potential facilities and applications, synthetic biology integrates different disciplines with one another ranging from basic science to engineering. This interdisciplinary branch therefore encompasses sciences that require specific development and ethical approaches. Materials and Methods: Science management princ...
متن کاملThe Assurance Timeline: Building Assurance Cases for Synthetic Biology
Recent research advances in modifying and controlling DNA have created a booming field of biological engineering called synthetic biology. In synthetic biology engineers manipulate and modify living organisms to change (and produce entirely novel) functionality, which has led to new fuel sources or the ability to mitigate pollution. Synthetic biology research is also expected to lead to methods...
متن کاملBuilding Enhancers from the Ground Up: A Synthetic Biology Approach
A challenge of the synthetic biology approach is to use our understanding of a system to recreate a biological function with specific properties. We have applied this framework to bacterial enhancers, combining a driver, transcription factor binding sites, and a poised polymerase to create synthetic modular enhancers. Our findings suggest that enhancer-based transcriptional control depends crit...
متن کاملDesign in synthetic biology
Significant transformations in biological technique and biological work are taking place in the aftermath of genomics. While existing accounts of genomics and biotechnology contend that species differences and evolutionary histories have undergone 'flattening' by molecular techniques and concepts, analysis of design practices in synthetic biology suggests that vertical aggregations of biologica...
متن کاملSynthetic biology.
Description: Synthetic biology provides the ability to re-engineer and compose core biological processes in new ways to create robust living systems that address energy, environment, and medical applications. This concentration equips students with essential knowledge and skills on foundational design-oriented models, genetic circuit analysis and design tools, circuit fabrication, characterizat...
