MONOD, a Collaborative Tool for Manipulating Biological Knowledge
(2008-06-19)
We describe an open source software tool called MONOD, for Modeler’s Notebook and Datastore, designed to capture and
communicate knowledge generated during the process of building models of many-component biological ...
Engineered Post-Translational Logic (PTL)
(2005-12-07)
Current synthetic biological circuits make use of protein-DNA and RNA-RNA interactions to control gene expression in bacteria. Systems that rely on the regulation of gene expression are relatively slow and unsuitable for ...
BioJADE: A Design and Simulation Tool for Synthetic Biological Systems
(2004-05-28)
The next generations of both biological engineering and computer engineering demand that control be exerted at the molecular level. Creating, characterizing and controlling synthetic biological systems may provide us ...
May 2006 correspondance between James Randerson and Drew Endy
(2006-06-15)
I am a science journalist with the Guardian newspaper in London. We are a national daily paper. I am hoping to put together an investigative piece on how easy (or not) it would be for a would-be terrorist to put together ...
Refactoring Bacteriophage T7 (2004 version)
(2004-10)
Natural biological systems are selected by evolution to continue to exist. Evolution might
give rise to complicated systems that are difficult to discover, measure, model, and direct.
Here, we redesign the genome of a ...
2003 Synthetic Biology study
(2007-08-14)
Biology is a technology for processing information, materials, and energy. As a technology platform, biological systems provide access to artifacts and processes across a range of scales (e.g., the ribosome is a programmable ...
Advance Online Correction to PNAS v104 p14283
(2009-06-30)
We are publishing the following draft correction and clarification to Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A.
2007 Sep 4;104(36):14283-8. We are now working directly with the PNAS Editor to have this
correction published by the ...
In the valley of the shadow of death
(2006-11-22)
During the 20th century, advances in biological understanding sparked a global
revolution in biological capability, or RBC. Since that time, the revolution has proceeded
in a Moore's-law-like fashion for many decades. ...
The BioBrick Public Agreement v1a
(2010-01-25)
We present an updated, clean draft for additional public comment of a new legal framework supporting the future of biotechnology. The framework, named here as the BioBrick Public Agreement, is based upon the contribution ...
