Biological Insights from Synthetic Biology.
It is a great pleasure to introduce this Integrative Biology themed issue on Synthetic Biology. The articles featured here cover a refreshingly diverse range of themes. Indeed, they are a testament to the truly exciting breadth of innovative research being pursued by synthetic biologists. Synthetic biology represents a powerful approach to increasing our understanding of the organization and fu...
متن کاملSynthetic biology: integrated gene circuits.
A major goal of synthetic biology is to develop a deeper understanding of biological design principles from the bottom up, by building circuits and studying their behavior in cells. Investigators initially sought to design circuits "from scratch" that functioned as independently as possible from the underlying cellular system. More recently, researchers have begun to develop a new generation of...
متن کاملFrom biological analysis to synthetic biology
Billions of years of evolution have produced organisms of stunning diversity. Some of these are relatively simple, like the bacteria; others show impressive complexity. For two decades, I have worked on a theoretical reconstruction and understanding of the major transitions that generated the levels of biological organisation that we see today. Many in biology have an antipathy to mathematics, ...

متن کاملEthical 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...
