Abstract:
Synthetic biology has advanced to contain not only whole cell systems but also cell-free systems. Combined with minimized genome and promoter engineering, synthetic biology can be used to engineer living systems or biomolecular components for production of chemicals, materials or pharmaceutics. The future looks bright!
