Synthetic biology in plants. [PDF]
Synthetic biology, an interdisciplinary field at the intersection of engineering and biology, has garnered considerable attention for its potential applications in plant science. By exploiting engineering principles, synthetic biology enables the redesign and construction of biological systems to manipulate plant traits, metabolic pathways, and ...

Chemistry is a broadly powerful discipline in contemporary science because it has the ability to create new forms of the matter that it studies. By doing so, chemistry can test models that connect molecular structure to behaviour without having to rely on what nature has provided.

Synthetic biology of hypoxia [PDF]
SummarySynthetic biology can greatly aid the investigation of fundamental regulatory mechanisms and enable their direct deployment in the host organisms of choice. In the field of plant hypoxia physiology, a synthetic biology approach has recently been exploited to infer general properties of the plant oxygen sensing mechanism, by expression of plant ...

Synthetic biology: biology by design [PDF]
Synthetic biology can be defined as the design and construction of novel biologically based parts, devices and systems, as well as the redesign of existing natural biological systems, for useful purposes. It builds on genetic engineering, being design-driven genetic engineering encompassing engineering concepts of standardization and abstraction (Endy,

Principles of synthetic biology [PDF]
Abstract In synthetic biology, biological cells and processes are dismantled and reassembled to make novel systems that do useful things. Designs are encoded by deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA); DNA makes biological (bio-)parts; bioparts are combined to make devices; devices are built into biological systems.

There is currently much excitement surrounding the rapidly growing discipline of synthetic biology, which utilizes the design and construction principles of engineering to develop, evolve and standardize biological components and systems. This systematic approach to improving and increasing the programmability and robustness of biological components is

Editorial–Synthetic Biology [PDF]
Synthetic biology builds upon over 35 years of genetic engineering. For example, in the 1970s methods were invented for using enzymes to rework DNA. Applying these tools, bacteria were engineered to yield relevant products such as growth hormones and insulin.

Synthetic biology's flywheel [PDF]
Producing drugs and chemicals efficiently from cells remains a major challenge. Synthetic biologists need to invent the equivalents of the crank and flywheel to improve productivity.
