Quantitative and synthetic biology approaches to combat bacterial pathogens

Synthetic Biology Approaches to Combat Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria

Synthetic biology (SB) is an innovative and emerging field, representing a confluence of science and engineering. It aims to (re)-design biological parts, devices and systems while applying engineering principles for useful applications. Valuable insight gained on the functions of biological systems will further improve the design capacity. The advance of SB is expected to provide solutions to ...

Build to understand: synthetic approaches to biology.

In this review we discuss how synthetic biology facilitates the task of investigating genetic circuits that are observed in naturally occurring biological systems. Specifically, we give examples where experimentation with synthetic gene circuits has been used to understand four fundamental mechanisms intrinsic to development and disease: multistability, stochastic gene expression, oscillations,...

a review approaches to identify enteric bacterial pathogens

conclusions therefore, development of rapid diagnostic methods with suitable sensitivity and specificity is very important about this infectious disease. in this review, we will discuss some of the important diagnostic methods. context diarrhea is a common disease across the world. according to who, every year about two billion cases of diarrhea are reported in the world. it occurs mainly in th...

Synthetic biology approaches to engineer T cells.

There is rapidly growing interest in learning how to engineer immune cells, such as T lymphocytes, because of the potential of these engineered cells to be used for therapeutic applications such as the recognition and killing of cancer cells. At the same time, our knowhow and capability to logically engineer cellular behavior is growing rapidly with the development of synthetic biology. Here we...
