Cell-free Synthetic Biology for the Masses
Why Cell-free?
Cell-free systems include all the necessary biomachinery for producing proteins outside of a living cell.
Due to their inherent safety and simplicity, cell-free systems provide a powerful tool to synthetic biologists for engineering novel systems without the constraints of cellular life.
Motivation
A lack of standardization, simplification and flexibility has limited the application of cell-free systems, including its use within the education system and DIY community.
We have identified three target user-groups for our system:
Design
To lower the barrier of synthetic biology our project aims to create a STANDARD, SAFE, MODULAR and USER-FRIENDLY cell-free system.
Our System
A collection of standard parts for essential TX-TL components.
Streamline and novel purification techniques.
A tool to create an orthogonal system
A tool to detect potentially harmful encrypted sequences.
A safe synthetic biology teaching tool.
Simplified protocols.
Curriculum aligned lesson plans.
