Abstract:
Synthetic biology can create knowledge and tools that enable products with attributes that fit into a sustainable bioeconomy. The specialised synthetic biology market is often conflated with the broader enabled products market. Here, we propose a framework of the synthetic biology market for a common understanding of its commercial potential.

RNA is the Missing Link Between DNA and Proteins
In the early 1900s, scientists discovered that DNA stores all the information needed for cellular functions and that proteins perform most of these functions. However, the mechanisms of converting genetic information into functional proteins remained unknown for many years. Initially, it was believed that a single gene is...
