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.
