Results from TASBE
The TASBE (A Tool-Chain to Accelerate Synthetic Biological Engineering) project [2] developed a tool-chain (Figure 1) to design and build synthetic biology systems. These tools convert a circuit description written in a high-level language to an implementation in cells, assembled with laboratory robots. Each tool addresses a di↵erent sub-problem. This paper describes each tool and its key results.
متن کاملA Method for Fast, High-Precision Characterization of Synthetic Biology Devices
Engineering biological systems with predictable behavior is a foundational goal of synthetic biology. To accomplish this, it is important to accurately characterize the behavior of biological devices. Prior characterization efforts, however, have generally not yielded enough high-quality information to enable compositional design. In the TASBE (A Tool-Chain to Accelerate Synthetic Biological En...
متن کاملOnline Tools for Characterization, Design, and Debugging
The engineering of biological systems can be greatly aided by better models, derived from high-quality characterization data, and by better means for designing and debugging new genetic circuits. Web-based tools and repositories have proven a successful approach to distributing such techniques, particularly because the centralization of infrastructure greatly decreases adoption cost for new use...
متن کاملToward Engineering Synthetic Microbial Metabolism
The generation of well-characterized parts and the formulation of biological design principles in synthetic biology are laying the foundation for more complex and advanced microbial metabolic engineering. Improvements in de novo DNA synthesis and codon-optimization alone are already contributing to the manufacturing of pathway enzymes with improved or novel function. Further development of anal...
متن کاملBacteriophage-based synthetic biology for the study of infectious diseases.
Since their discovery, bacteriophages have contributed enormously to our understanding of molecular biology as model systems. Furthermore, bacteriophages have provided many tools that have advanced the fields of genetic engineering and synthetic biology. Here, we discuss bacteriophage-based technologies and their application to the study of infectious diseases. New strategies for engineering ge...
