Importance of the 5′ regulatory region to bacterial synthetic biology applications

Summary The field of synthetic biology is evolving at a fast pace. It is advancing beyond single‐gene alterations in single hosts to the logical design of complex circuits and the development of integrated synthetic genomes. Recent breakthroughs in deep learning, which is increasingly used in de nov...
