DNA meets synthetic polymers--highly versatile hybrid materials.
The combination of synthetic polymers and DNA has provided biologists, chemists and materials scientists with a fascinating new hybrid material. The challenges in preparing these molecular chimeras were overcome by different synthetic strategies that rely on coupling the nucleic acid moiety and the organic polymer in solution or on solid supports. The morphologies and functions of the bioorgani...
متن کاملSynthetic meets cell biology
Following a successful panel discussion at last years' American Society for Cell Biology Annual Meeting, the first minisymposium in Synthetic Cell Biology was held at this years' annual meeting in Denver. This is an exciting first for the society, and the attendance clearly supported the interest of cell biologists in applying the concepts of synthetic biology to the understanding and engineeri...
متن کاملGraphene-based hybrid materials: synthetic approaches and properties
Carbon has a unique chemistry reflected in its wide presence in the inorganic and organic world – benzene, diamond, graphite, fullerene, carbon nanotubes and now graphene – carbon seems to be at the centre of action in the playground of scientific research. In this review, synthesis and unique properties of graphene and graphene-based composites have been discussed with particular emphasis on t...
متن کاملControl theory meets synthetic biology.
The past several years have witnessed an increased presence of control theoretic concepts in synthetic biology. This review presents an organized summary of how these control design concepts have been applied to tackle a variety of problems faced when building synthetic biomolecular circuits in living cells. In particular, we describe success stories that demonstrate how simple or more elaborat...
متن کاملSynthetic biology meets tissue engineering
Classical tissue engineering is aimed mainly at producing anatomically and physiologically realistic replacements for normal human tissues. It is done either by encouraging cellular colonization of manufactured matrices or cellular recolonization of decellularized natural extracellular matrices from donor organs, or by allowing cells to self-organize into organs as they do during fetal life. Fo...
