Abstract

As an interdisciplinary subject between biology and engineering, synthetic biology has shown more and more applications in the fields of biomedicine, energy, new material, etc. Synthetic genomics focusing on de novo design and synthesis of new life system is one of the major directions in synthetic biology which relies on serial techniques including DNA synthesis, assembly, transplantation, etc. Here, we summary the current developments on technologies in genome synthesis, which aims to deepen the comprehension of the technique systems and shed light to the future development in this field.
