Synthetic Biology Competition
The Advantages to a Synthetic Biology Approach
A cornerstone in synthetic biology is the connection of distinct biological functions to create useful system level behavior. We can take advantage of how bacteria naturally localizes in tumors while failing to survive in healthy tissue in the body to use bacteria as a cancer-specific delivery mechanism. Also, bacteria can mass produce products, invade cells, and release the products directly into the cells. This allows easily-degraded compounds to be effective delivered into cancer cells. It also prevents these compounds from affecting healthy cells. The combination of these mechanisms creates a powerful, cancer-specific circuit for gene therapy.
Expanding the Possibilities of Gene Therapy

The Future Outlook
Donec ullamcorper nulla non metus auctor fringilla. Vestibulum id ligula porta felis euismod semper. Praesent commodo cursus magna, vel scelerisque nisl consectetur. Fusce dapibus, tellus ac cursus commodo.
