TY - JOUR. T1 - A Synthetic Gene Circuit for Self-Regulating Delivery of Biologic Drugs in Engineered Tissues. AU - Pferdehirt, Lara. AU - Ross, Alison K.. AU - Brunger, Jonathan M.. AU - Guilak, Farshid. PY - 2019/5/1. Y1 - 2019/5/1. N2 - Transient, resolving inflammation plays a critical role in tissue repair and regeneration. In the context of joint disease, however, chronic inflammation following injury or with osteoarthritis can lead to irreversible articular cartilage degradation and joint pain. Developing tissue engineering strategies for the regeneration of articular cartilage remains challenging due to the harsh inflammatory environment of an injured or arthritic joint, which can promote degradation of engineered tissues as well as native articular cartilage. Here, we developed an artificial gene circuit for controlled, cell-based delivery of biologic drugs, based on a nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB)-responsive synthetic promoter. Using ...

The dimorphic yeast Candida rugosa has an unusual codon usage that hampers the functional expression of genes derived from this yeast in a conventional heterologous host. Commercial samples of C. rugosa lipase (CRL) are widely used in industry, but contain several different isoforms encoded by the lip gene family, among which the isoform encoded by the gene lip1 is the most prominent. In a first laborious attempt, the lip1 gene was systematically modified by site-directed mutagenesis to gain functional expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. As alternative approach, the gene (1647 bp) was completely synthesized with an optimized nucleotide sequence in terms of heterologous expression in yeast and simplified genetic manipulation. The synthetic gene was functionally expressed in both hosts S. cerevisiae and Pichia pastoris, and the effect of heterologous leader sequences on expression and secretion was investigated. In particular, using P. pastoris cells, the synthetic gene was functionally ...

Development of cheap, high-throughput and reliable gene synthesis methods will broadly stimulate progress in biology and biotechnology. Currently, the reliance on column-synthesized oligonucleotides as a source of DNA limits further cost reductions in gene synthesis. Oligonucleotides from DNA microc …

A computer program called GMAP has been developed for i) mapping the potential restriction endonuclease (R.E.) sites that can be introduced in a nonambiguous DNA sequence; ii) predicting the mutations required to introduce unique R.E. sites in the nonambiguous DNA sequences; and iii) searching all R.E. sites in ambiguous DNA sequence obtained by reverse translation of a given amino acid sequence. This allows the design of synthetic genes as well as the modular redesign after introducing limited base pair mismatches in wild-type genes in order to adapt them for cassette mutagenesis. The GMAP program uses an algorithm based on set theory that reduces the degree of complexity from an exponential to linear function of sequence length. Therefore, the speed of searching for potential R.E. sites in reverse-translated gene sequences and the prediction of new R.E. sites in natural genes by mutations are rapid.. ...

So far codon-optimized HIV-1 envelope genes have been investigated for the T cell line-adapted strain MN, which differs in several aspects from primary isolates. Envelopes of primary isolates may be more relevant for vaccine purposes. This article describes for the first time the engineering and characterization of four humanized genes encoding the secreted gp120/gp140, or the membrane-bound gp150/gp160, of a primary CCR5 tropic, clade B, clinical isolate HIV-1(BX08). The genes were built in fragments for easy cassette exchange of regions important for immunogenicity, function, and expression. The transcription and expression of the synthetic genes in mammalian cell lines were Rev independent and highly increased. Increased expression of membrane-bound gp160 induced a high cytopathic effect in U87.CD4.CCR5 cells. Gene gun and intramuscular DNA vaccination in mice induced a strong specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte response independent of the gene construct, expression level, or DNA immunization ...

This new technology, on the other hand, is easy to use and requires little to no training. Specifically tuned to the Zika virus, sensors are applied to small paper samples. Using a small saliva, urine, or blood sample, equivalent to the amount required by blood glucose monitors to test blood sugar levels, the sample is applied to the sensors, triggering a response that provides visually evident results in as little as an hour.. If the sample contains the RNA of the Zika virus, the test area turns purple. In making such a simple to use test, the team has created a exciting tool that promises to bring portable, reliable, and inexpensive Zika diagnostics to the field at less than a dollar per test. Moreover, it does not require a lab, expensive equipment, or highly-trained technicians to administer.. The diagnostic platform developed by our team has provided a high-performing, low-cost tool that can work in remote locations, notes Dr. Keith Pardee, the lead author of the study. We have developed ...

Synthetic genes inherently have errors derived mainly from inaccuracies in the oligonucleotide syntheses and to a lesser extent from the DNA polymerase-mediated assembly [14]. The error rates observed in our assembly products were consistent with the 1 to 3 errors per kb reported by others [20], and imply that, especially for larger genes, prohibitively large numbers of sequencing reactions need to be performed in order to have a high probability to find a clone with the correct sequence [21]. Several approaches have been proposed to decrease the error rate, in particular using enzymes involved in mismatch recognition on renatured assembly products [20-22]. However, these may be difficult to implement due to the cost and availability of such enzymes. Therefore, for small-scale gene synthesis projects, it is often simpler to correct errors through site-directed mutagenesis (SDM). Numerous SDM techniques have been described over the last two decades, many of which involve more than one PCR step, ...

A team of scientists led by the University of Southampton has demonstrated a groundbreaking new method of gene synthesis - a vital research tool with real-world applications in everything from growing transplantable organs to developing treatments for cancer.. Current methods for synthesizing genes make extensive use of enzymes (naturally occurring biological catalysts) to connect short strands of DNA to form the larger strands that make up genes.. These methods have been used to assemble very long DNA strands, such as an organisms genome (its entire set of genes), but are limited because of their reliance on enzymes. One of the main shortcomings is that they do not allow the incorporation into specific sites on the DNA of epigenetic information - a secondary layer of genetic information that controls the expression (the switching on or off) of genes in cells.. Epigenetic information plays an important role in several biological processes, including diseases such as cancer, meaning that ...

The T7 bacteriophage RNA polymerase (T7 RNAP) serves as a model for understanding RNA synthesis, as a tool for protein expression, and as an actuator for synthetic gene circuit design in bacterial cells and cell-free extract. T7 RNAP is an attractive tool for orthogonal protein expression in bacteria owing to its compact single subunit structure and orthogonal promoter specificity. Understanding the mechanisms underlying T7 RNAP regulation is important to the design of engineered T7-based transcription factors, which can be used in gene circuit design. To explore regulatory mechanisms for T7 RNAP-driven expression, we developed a rapid and cost-effective method to characterize engineered T7-based transcription factors using cell-free protein synthesis and an acoustic liquid handler. Using this method, we investigated the effects of the tetracycline operators proximity to the T7 promoter on the regulation of T7 RNAP-driven expression. Our results reveal a mechanism for regulation that functions ...

Escherichia coli as a Model Organism and Its Application in Biotechnology. By Vargas-Maya Naurú Idalia and Franco Bernardo. Without a doubt, in the past 20 or so years, we have achieved the power of biology in different ways. In the present, we have many tools for developing novel technologies and applications for organism modifications that ultimately let us know many aspects of organisms biology and, therefore, apply that knowledge for technological purposes. Of all the model organisms and tools for genetic modification available, Escherichia coli stands out as a model organism and what we would like to call molecular biologist tool box. In the present chapter, we aim to review our current knowledge regarding genetic modifications and tools for modifying E. coli to generate plasmid vectors, single and multiple gene knockouts, whole genome editing, biosensor generation and applications and synthetic gene circuits and genomes..

Stress response genes and their regulators form networks that underlie drug resistance. These networks often have an inherent tradeoff: their expression is costly in the absence of stress, but beneficial in stress. They can quickly emerge in the genomes of infectious microbes and cancer cells, protecting them from treatment. Yet, the evolution of stress resistance networks is not well understood. Here, we use a two‐component synthetic gene circuit integrated into the budding yeast genome to model experimentally the adaptation of a stress response module and its host genome in three different scenarios. In agreement with computational predictions, we find that: (i) intra‐module mutations target and eliminate the module if it confers only cost without any benefit to the cell; (ii) intra‐ and extra‐module mutations jointly activate the module if it is potentially beneficial and confers no cost; and (iii) a few specific mutations repeatedly fine‐tune the modules noisy response if it has ...

A nanoscale antibody first found in camels combined with a protein-degrading molecule is an effective new platform to control protein levels in cells, according to Rice University scientists.

In modern medicine, diagnosis of disorders kick-off therapeutic interventions and early-stage discovery of pathologies significantly improves therapeutic success. However, most disorders will only be diagnosed when discomfort urges a patient to seek medical advice. In these cases treatment may be too late. Tumour markers, immune response proteins and pathology-associated metabolites are monitored for diagnosis and therapy management by quantitative analysis of blood samples or biopsies. This requires medical intervention that is typically initiated when the patient has symptoms and is seeking medical advice. However, preventive medical check-ups for the prognosis of physiological disorders are not receiving enough attention. Synthetic gene circuits that constantly monitor physiological processes, detect a pathological situation and produce diagnostic output or coordinate therapeutic interventions could change our health-care system from the standard symptom-treatment scheme to a symptom-free ...

From a biological point, the rewritten genome is also interesting. Beat Christen added that- Their method is a litmus test to find out whether we biologists have correctly understood genetics, and it allows us to highlight potential gaps in our knowledge. Obviously, the rewritten genome can contain only information that the researchers have actually understood. Additional information that is situated in the DNA sequence, and has not yet been understood by scientists this information would have been lost in the process of producing the new code.. For study purposes, the scientists generated also and strains of bacteria that contained the naturally occurring Caulobacter genome segments of the new genome. By turning off certain genes in these bacteria, the researchers were able to check the functions of the genes. They tested each of the artificial genes in a multistep process.. In such experiments, the researchers found out that just about 580 of the 680 artificial genes were functional. Christen ...

In the last 5 years, there has been increased recognition of the powers of gene synthesis. It is now easy and affordable to look up genetic sequences for nearly any organism, design an expression construct, and order that gene from a synthesis company. This allows for the creative projects we see each year at the iGEM jamborees, but it also allows those with malevolent intentions and adequate knowledge to easily order genes that may pose a hazard to others. The recognition of this potential has led members of governments and large synthesis companies to try and establish a framework for screening these synthesis orders to ensure that potentially hazardous sequences stay in the hands of those who would use them for legitimate research purposes. This effort to regulate the gene synthesis industry has largely come from within. In the late 2000s, both Europes International Association of Synthetic Biology (IASP) and North Americas International Gene Synthesis Consortium (IGSC) put forth reports ...

Rough protocol: Identify your target amino acid sequence. Plug it into DNAworks online software with your preferred excluded sequences (restriction sites, barcodes, screening primer sequences, etc.) and rough parameters - a rule of thumb that has worked in the past is 70 nt oligo length and ~63C annealing temp. You will get a set of primers out of the software. http://helixweb.nih.gov/dnaworks/ PAN oligo synthesis works for ordering all of these primers with enough fidelity to get a working full synthesis.

A current challenge in the robust engineering of synthetic gene networks is context dependence, the unintended interactions among genes and host factors. Ribosome competition is a specific form of context dependence, where all genes in the network compete for a limited pool of translational resources available for gene expression. Recently, theoretical and experimental studies have shown that ribosome competition creates a hidden layer of interactions among genes, which largely hinders our ability to predict design outcomes. In this work, we establish a control theoretic framework, where these hidden interactions become disturbance signals. We then propose a distributed feedback mechanism to achieve disturbance decoupling in the network. The feedback loop at each node consists of the protein product transcriptionally activating a small RNA (sRNA), which forms a translationally inactive complex with mRNA rapidly. We illustrate that with this feedback mechanism, protein production at each node is ...

Cells sense their environment, process information, and continuously react to both internal and external stimuli. The construction of synthetic gene networks can help improve our understanding of such naturally existing regulatory functions within cells. Synthetic gene networks will also enable a wide range of new programmed cells applications. We use computer engineering principles of abstraction, composition, and interface specifications to program cells with sensors and actuators precisely controlled by analog and digital logic circuitry. Here, recombinant DNA-binding proteins represent signals, and recombinant genes perform the computation by regulating protein expression. We constructed synthetic gene networks that implement biochemical logic circuits in Escherichia coli fabricated using the AND, NOT, and IMPLIES logic gates. We have built a variety of circuits, including a transcriptional cascade whose digital behavior improves significantly with the addition of genetic components. We have ...

A synthetic biology approach that adds immunostimulatory gene circuits to cancer cells may contribute to combination immunotherapies against cancer

A synthetic gene encoding the 86 amino acid residues of mature acyl-CoA-binding protein (ACBP), and the initiating methionine was constructed. The synthetic gene was assembled from eight partially overlapping oligonucleotides. Codon usage and nucleotides surrounding the ATG translation-initiation codon were chosen to allow efficient expression in Escherichia coli as well as in yeast. The synthetic gene was inserted into the expression vector pKK223-3 and expressed in E. coli. In maximally induced cultures, recombinant ACBP constitutes 12-15% of total cellular protein. A fraction highly enriched for recombinant ACBP was obtained by extracting induced E. coli cells with 1 M-acetic acid. Recombinant ACBP was purified to homogeneity by successive use of gel-filtration chromatography, ion-exchange chromatography and reverse-phase h.p.l.c. Recombinant ACBP differed from native ACBP by lacking the N-terminal acetyl group. The acyl-CoA-binding characteristics of recombinant ACBP did not differ from ...

March 2020. Risk assessment challenges of synthetic gene drive organisms. By Eva Sirinathsinghji Introduction. The development of gene drive organisms (GDOs) is highly controversial, as illustrated by the intense academic, political and societal debates over their potential deployment for a variety of applications from public health to conservation, agriculture and dual-use technologies.. The controversy stems from the biological and conceptual novelties of GDOs (Simon et al., 2018). Unlike with current genetically modified organisms (GMOs) released into the environment for commercial or medical use, gene drives are designed to purposely spread genetic modifications through entire populations. The capacity for spread and persistence makes them attractive to developers, but distinct from GMOs released to date. Even for GMOs with which there is some experience, gene flow or contamination has mostly been considered a risk to be avoided. GDOs make such risks certainties.. As currently envisioned, ...

The genome of Streptomyces encodes a high number of natural product (NP) biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). Most of these BGCs are not expressed or are poorly expressed (commonly called silent BGCs) under traditional laboratory experimental conditions. These NP BGCs represent an unexplored rich reservoir of natural compounds, which can be used to discover novel chemical compounds. To activate silent BGCs for NP discovery, two main strategies, including the induction of BGCs expression in native hosts and heterologous expression of BGCs in surrogate Streptomyces hosts, have been adopted, which normally requires genetic manipulation. So far, various genome editing technologies have been developed, which has markedly facilitated the activation of BGCs and NP overproduction in their native hosts, as well as in heterologousStreptomyces hosts. In this review, we summarize the challenges and recent advances in genome editing tools for Streptomyces genetic manipulation with a focus on editing tools ...

Synthetic biology, by engineering biological systems for specific functions, can have widespread applications. For example, microorganisms can be engineered to produce valuable chemicals that are difficult to synthesize, or cells engineered to detect and respond to levels of glucose concentration by secreting insulin. Moreover, building simple circuits with well-characterized molecular components can teach us a lot about biology. These minimal circuits provide us with a tractable context where we can control all of the components and their interactions (much like a biological electronic breadboard), in addition to generating useful perturbations to probe biological systems. Using approaches inspired by physics, these minimalistic models can give us deeper insights into biological systems. The lab research goals are to engineer reliable synthetic gene circuits suitable for impactful applications, and to use them as models and tools to learn more about biology.. ...

The synthetic gene construct from piGEM Nevada was then subcloned as a HinD3 Mfe1 fragment into the HinD3 EcoR1 site of pBIB HYG. Because Mfe1 and EcoR1 restriction sites generate compatible sticky ends that when joined cannot be recleaved by either enzyme, by subcloning the synthetic gene as a HinD3 Mfe1 fragment instead of a HinD3 EcoR1 fragment we were able to destroy the EcoR1 site located at the 3 end of the NOS 3 terminator. The resulting plasmid now contains biobrick compatible cut sites flanking the 5 end of the promoter and 3 end of the reporter gene. This configuration will allow for the exchange of the RD29 promoter / RFP fusion with any other promoter / gene fusion construct. We are in the process of removing an unwanted Pst1 site located in the plasmid backbone. However, the vector is still useable now by cloning promoter / gene fusions as EcoR1 Spe1 fragments into the EcoR1 Spe1 sites of piGEM10. pBIB HYG was chosen as the basis for our vector construction based on the ...

A central goal of synthetic biology is to engineer cellular behavior by engineering synthetic gene networks for a variety of biotechnology and medical applications. The process of engineering gene networks often involves an iterative â design-build-testâ cycle, whereby the parts and connections that make up the network are built, characterized and varied until the desired network function is reached. Many advances have been made in the design and build portions of this cycle. However, the slow process of in vivo characterization of network function often limits the timescale of the testing step. Cell-free transcription-translation (TX-TL) systems offer a simple and fast alternative to performing these characterizations in cells. Here we provide an overview of a cell-free TX-TL system that utilizes the native Escherichia coli TX-TL machinery, thereby allowing a large repertoire of parts and networks to be characterized. As a way to demonstrate the utility of cell-free TX-TL, we illustrate the ...

Gene cloning using PCR is a well-established and effective technique for constructing native DNA sequences. However, when modifying or assembling novel genes, traditional PCR methods can be very inefficient. This often leads researchers to use a costly gene synthesis service to generate such constructs. This webinar presents a novel, rapid, and reliable method to build and clone the genes you need at a fraction of the cost of full gene synthesis services, using gBlocks™ Gene Fragments (IDT) and one of several cloning methods, including use of Gibson Assembly Master Mix (NEB). Products, cloning protocols, and applications are discussed in addition to troubleshooting recommendations and further support offered by IDT ...

One of the questions that always comes up whenever synthetic biology is mentioned is how safe is it? after all, this is a man-made genome going into a bacterial cell. Surely you could make another, more dangerous genome, and put that inside a bacteria and then use it to cause destruction, or a B-movie sci-fi plot? I suppose the risk is always there but in all reality, there are much better, cheaper and faster ways to ensure destruction happens. It took Venters team six years to get this whole thing completed and working and while its true that the process is only going to get faster I dont see it getting any quicker than rummaging around under the sink and coming up with enough ingredients to explode. Last summer it took around one and a half months to get my 6kb gene sequenced, and two months of work completely failing to make two very small mutations in another 2kb gene. There are people who fiddle around in their garages doing synthetic gene cloning, but there appears to be a pretty ...

Synthetome is the total of all artificial gene/genetic products in a given system. The term was proposed by Chiliveru S et al.[1] In the recent past, the system-wide genomics approach has considerably improved the translation of bioinformatics data generated into wet-lab experiments for predicting better drug targets. There has been a significant growth in understanding the immune response for those candidate (pathogenic and synthetases) genes linked to antigenicity.[2] This framework of protein-protein interaction networks constituting synthetases could be potential co-targets for many proteins.[3] Furthermore, their predicted role would initiate resistance for many drugs where such targets were earlier shown to form a class of resistome proteins and have been extensively identified in Mycobacterium.[4] ...

Why do that? Well, now that there are no TAG codons, RF1 is out of a job. So now the researchers are free to remove RF1 from the cell, and once RF1 is gone, the cell would no longer interpret TAG as a stop codon, meaning TAG would be freed up to do whatever the researchers want. They could program the cell to interpret TAG as coding for any amino acid of their choosing, or even for an artificial amino acid. By reprograming the cell in this way, scientists could create completely artificial genes that code for whatever they want. And they wouldnt be limited to things like insulin and growth hormones, they could make genes that code for new artificial proteins for whatever use they could think of. These biological organisms would no longer be limited to making natural biological products, but could be made to produce anything we needed ...

AB - Type IV pili (Tfp), which are key virulence factors in many bacterial pathogens, define a large group of multipurpose filamentous nanomachines widespread in Bacteria and Archaea. Tfp biogenesis is a complex multistep process, which relies on macromolecular assemblies composed of 15 conserved proteins in model gram-negative species. To improve our limited understanding of the molecular mechanisms of filament assembly, we have used a synthetic biology approach to reconstitute, in a nonnative heterologous host, a minimal machinery capable of building Tfp. Here we show that eight synthetic genes are sufficient to promote filament assembly and that the corresponding proteins form a macromolecular complex at the cytoplasmic membrane, which we have purified and characterized biochemically. Our results contribute to a better mechanistic understanding of the assembly of remarkable dynamic filaments nearly ubiquitous in prokaryotes ...

This January, scientists at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University captured on screen the process of the brain making memories. Using mice to perform their experiments, researchers added fluorescent tags to mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid) molecules that helped them track these molecules as the brain underwent the active process of creating memories. mRNA carries copies of instructional materials for the formation of proteins from the cells DNA.. Its noteworthy that we were able to develop this mouse without having to use an artificial gene or other interventions that might have disrupted neurons and called our findings into question, said Robert Singer, author of the two papers published in the journal Science, to Science News at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine.. This development is crucial because neurons are inherently sensitive and can be damaged easily if the experiments are not performed carefully.. The mRNA molecules that the researchers tracked help ...

We have identified a large number of mutants with varying degrees of silencing defects through systematic genetic screens in S. pombe using reporter genes that monitors silencing in vivo at different heterochromatic domains.. To understand the roles of these novel factors in heterochromatin we use functional genomics. This is a very powerful approach to assign individual genes to specific functions and pathways by evaluating their mutant phenotypes in the context of other mutations. We have done this for various mutants of interest at the genome-wide level by crossing them with the deletion library of S. pombe using the SGA (Synthetic Gene Arrays) method and a half-automatic high-density robotic approach. Analyzing these genetic interactions quantitatively allows us to dissect mutations within the same pathway (which display non-additive phenotypes) from mutants of parallel pathways (exhibiting synthetic phenotypes).
