Abstract

Reconstitution is an experimental strategy that seeks to recapitulate biological events outside their natural contexts using a reduced set of components. Classically, biochemical reconstitution has been extensively applied to identify the minimal set of molecules sufficient for recreating the basic chemistry of life. By analogy, reconstitution approaches to developmental biology recapitulate aspects of developmental events outside an embryo, with the goal of revealing the basic genetic circuits or physical cues sufficient for recreating developmental decisions. The rapidly growing repertoire of genetic, molecular, microscopic, and bioengineering tools is expanding the complexity and precision of reconstitution experiments. We review the emerging field of synthetic developmental biology, with a focus on the ways in which reconstitution strategies and new biological tools have enhanced our modern understanding of fundamental questions in developmental biology.

合成发育生物学:通过重组来理解。
重构是一种实验策略,旨在利用一组减少的成分重现自然环境之外的生物事件。从经典角度讲,生化重构已被广泛应用于确定足以重现生命基本化学过程的最小分子集。与此类似,发育生物学的重组方法也是重现胚胎外发育事件的各个方面,目的是揭示足以重现发育决定的基本遗传回路或物理线索。基因、分子、显微镜和生物工程工具的迅速发展,扩大了重组实验的复杂性和精确性。我们回顾了新兴的合成发育生物学领域,重点关注重组策略和新的生物工具如何增进我们对发育生物学基本问题的现代理解。

期刊介绍: The Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, established in 1985, comprehensively addresses major advancements in cell and developmental biology. Encompassing the structure, function, and organization of cells, as well as the development and evolution of cells in relation to both single and multicellular organisms, the journal explores models and tools of molecular biology. As of the current volume, the journal has transitioned from gated to open access through Annual Reviews' Subscribe to Open program, making all articles published under a CC BY license.
