Synthetic DNA tools to speed up the construction and testing of genetic circuits

Synthetic genetic circuits are networks of genes that have been engineered to co-opt a cell’s machinery and bring about an atypical, but useful function or trait. Building genetic circuitry often requires synthesis of epistatic networks of genes, regulatory sequences, and key effectors who’s collective activity result in a desired outcome. Recent successful applications of genetic circuits have ranged from the production of plant derived therapeutics on an industrial scale to the formation of low-cost point-of-care diagnostic reporters1–4.
