Abstract
Synthetic biology, also known as engineering biology, is an interdisciplinary field that applies engineering principles to biological systems. One way to engineer biological systems is by modifying their DNA. A common workflow involves creating new DNA parts through synthesis and then using them in combination with other parts through assembly. Assembly standards such as MoClo, Phytobricks, and Loop are based on Golden Gate, and provide a framework for combining parts. The Synthetic Biology Open Language (SBOL) has implemented a best practice for representing build plans to communicate them to other practitioners through whiteboard designs and in a machine-readable format for communication with lab automation tools. Here we present a software tool for creating SBOL representations of build plans to simulate type IIS-mediated assembly reactions and store relevant metadata.
期刊介绍:
For over 20 years, biological scientists have come to rely on the research protocols and methodologies in the critically acclaimed Methods in Molecular Biology series. The series was the first to introduce the step-by-step protocols approach that has become the standard in all biomedical protocol publishing. Each protocol is provided in readily-reproducible step-by-step fashion, opening with an introductory overview, a list of the materials and reagents needed to complete the experiment, and followed by a detailed procedure that is supported with a helpful notes section offering tips and tricks of the trade as well as troubleshooting advice.
