Synthetic biology is the design and construction of biological modules, from enzymes to complete cells.Synthetic biology combines biology, chemistry, and engineering, and strives to create new systems to solve specific problems.ynthetic biologists attempt to design, model and then fabricate ideal biological systems. Applications for synthetic biology include drug discovery, the production of biofuels, âbiosensingâ (using a biological component to detect an environmental signal), investigating disease mechanisms, and more.
In the area of synthetic biology, a living artificial cell has been defined as a completely synthetically-made cell that can capture energy, maintain ion gradients, contain macromolecules as well as store information and have the ability to mutate.ne popular definition is designing and constructing biological devices, biological systems, and biological machines for useful purposes.. However, the functional aspects of this definition stem from molecular biology and biotechnology.
