Accurate, economical and high-throughput gene and genome synthesis is essential to the development of synthetic biology and biotechnology. New large-scale gene synthesis methods harnessing the power of DNA microchips have recently been demonstrated. Yet, the technology is still compromised by a high occurrence of errors in the synthesized products. These errors still require substantial effort to correct. To solve this bottleneck, novel approaches based on new chemistry, enzymology or next generation sequencing have emerged. This review discusses these new trends and promising strategies of error filtration, correction and prevention in de novo gene and genome synthesis. Continued innovation in error correction technologies will enable affordable and large-scale gene and genome synthesis in the near future. 相似文献

Advances in DNA sequencing and synthesis technologies concurrent with the development of new recombinant DNA approaches have enabled the extension of directed evolution algorithms to the genome-scale. It is now possible to simultaneously map the effect of mutation(s) in each and every gene in the genome onto almost any screenable or selectable phenotype in less than a week. Such maps can be used to direct the design and construction of libraries containing billions of rationally designed combinatorial mutations. Such combinatorial libraries can now also be created and evaluated in less than a week. The review presents and discusses these new technologies within the context of directed evolution and inverse metabolic engineering. 相似文献

A number of fundamental technical developments like the evolvement of oligonucleotide microarrays, new sequencing technologies and gene synthesis have considerably changed the character of genomic biological resource centres in recent years. While genomic biological resource centres traditionally served mainly as providers of sparsely characterized cDNA clones and clone sets, there is nowadays a clear tendency towards well-characterized, high-quality clones. In addition, major new service units like microarray services have developed, which are completely independent of clone collections, reflecting the co-evolution of data generation and technology development. The new technologies require an increasingly higher degree of specialization, data integration and quality standards. Altogether, these developments result in spin-offs of highly specialized biotech companies, some of which will take a prominent position in translational medicine. 相似文献

Chemical synthesis of DNA sequences provides a powerful tool for modifying genes and for studying gene structure, expression and function. Modified genes and consequently protein/enzymes can bridge genomics and proteomics research or facilitate commercial applications of gene and protein technologies. In this review, we will summarize various strategies, designing softwares and error correction methods for chemical gene synthesis, particularly for the synthesis and assembly of long DNA molecules based on polymerase cycling assembly. Also, we will briefly discuss some of the major applications of chemical synthesis of DNA sequences in basic research and applied areas. 相似文献

Gene synthesis is an emerging field which has widespread implications in synthetic biology and molecular biology. The field is constantly evolving which has led to key advances in oligonucleotide synthesis and gene synthesis technologies, with simplicity, cost effectiveness and high throughput. The miniaturization, multiplexing, microfluidic processing and the integrated microchip engineering will drive down cost and increase productivity without compromising DNA synthesis fidelity, whereas the gigantic amount of genome information provides infinite source of DNA elements and genes as raw material for synthetic biology. This article describes some of the recent patents on oligonucleotide synthesis and gene synthesis. 相似文献

Two-step total gene synthesis method 总被引:22,自引:1,他引:21
In the post-genomic era, the ability to synthesize any arbitrary DNA sequence is increasingly in demand. A bottleneck in current gene synthesis technologies is the associated cost, due primarily to the high cost of oligonucleotides synthesis and post-synthesis sequencing. In the present paper, an improved method for low-cost gene synthesis that combines dual asymmetrical PCR and overlap extension PCR is presented, which enables any DNA sequence to be synthesized error free. Additionally, the method is easily amenable to automation. 相似文献

Chemical gene synthesis is a powerful tool for basic biological research and biotechnology applications. During the last 30 years, major advances have been made in the chemical synthesis of DNA sequences ranging from fragments of <1 kb to multi-gene sequences of >30 kb. There is a need for simple, reproducible, less error-prone and cost-effective methods that guarantee successful synthesis of the desired genes and are amenable to automation. Many polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based and non-polymerase-cycling-assembly (PCA)-based strategies have been developed for chemical gene synthesis. The PCR-based method has been the subject of several recent reviews. Here, we provide an overview of the progress in non-PCA-based chemical gene synthesis using different strategies and methods, including enzymatic gene synthesis, annealing and ligation reaction, simultaneous synthesis of two genes via a hybrid gene, shotgun ligation and co-ligation, insertion gene synthesis, gene synthesis via one strand of DNA, template-directed ligation, ligase chain reaction, microarray-mediated gene synthesis, Blue Heron solid support technology and Sloning building block technology. The fundamental principle underlying each strategy, an example where applicable, and the advantages and disadvantages are discussed. The emphasis is on discussion of the most recent technologies and their potential applications, particularly for microarray-based genomics research. 相似文献

Our ability to engineer organisms with new biosynthetic pathways and genetic circuits is limited by the availability of protein characterization data and the cost of synthetic DNA. With new tools for reading and writing DNA, there are opportunities for scalable assays that more efficiently and cost effectively mine for biochemical protein characteristics. To that end, we have developed the Multiplex Library Synthesis and Expression Correction (MuLSEC) method for rapid assembly, error correction, and expression characterization of many genes as a pooled library. This methodology enables gene synthesis from microarray-synthesized oligonucleotide pools with a one-pot technique, eliminating the need for robotic liquid handling. Post assembly, the gene library is subjected to an ampicillin based quality control selection, which serves as both an error correction step and a selection for proteins that are properly expressed and folded in E. coli. Next generation sequencing of post selection DNA enables quantitative analysis of gene expression characteristics. We demonstrate the feasibility of this approach by building and testing over 90 genes for empirical evidence of soluble expression. This technique reduces the problem of part characterization to multiplex oligonucleotide synthesis and deep sequencing, two technologies under extensive development with projected cost reduction. 相似文献

Twenty years ago, the first complete gene cluster encoding the actinorhodin biosynthetic pathway was cloned and characterized. Subsequently, the gene clusters encoding the biosynthetic pathways for many antibiotics were isolated. In the past decade, breakthroughs in technology brought that generation of rationally designed or new hybrid metabolites to fruition. Now, the development of high-throughput DNA sequencing and DNA microarray techniques enables researchers to identify the regulatory mechanisms for the overproduction of secondary metabolites and to monitor gene expression during the fermentation cycle, accelerating the rational application of metabolic pathway engineering. How are the new tools of biotechnology currently being applied to improve the production of secondary metabolites? Where will this progress lead us tomorrow? The use of whole cells or partially purified enzymes as catalysts has been increased significantly for chemical synthesis in pharmaceutical and fine-chemical industries. The development of PCR technologies for protein engineering and DNA shuffling is leading to the generation of new enzymes with increased stability to a wide range of pHs, temperatures and solvents and with increased substrate specificity, reaction rate and enantioselectivity. Where will this emerging technology lead us in the twenty-first century? 相似文献

Gene synthesis technologies provide a powerful tool for increasing protein expression through codon optimization and gene modification. Here we describe an improved PCR-based gene synthesis technology, which is accurate, simple and cheap. The improved PCR-based gene synthesis (IPS) method consists of two steps. The first one is the synthesis of 300-400 bp fragments by PCR reaction with Pfu DNA polymerase from 60-mer and 30-mer oligonucleotides with a 15 bp overlap. The second one is assembling of fragments from the first step into the full-length gene by PCR reaction. Using this approach, we have successfully synthesized a modified phytase gene with 1256 bp in length with optimal codons for expression in Pichia pastoris. P. pastoris strain that expressed the modified phytase gene (phyA-mod) showed a 50% increase in phytase activity level. In addition, we propose an inexpensive method for error correction, based on overlap-extension PCR (OE-PCR). 相似文献

As development unfolds, DNA replication is not only coordinated with cell proliferation, but is regulated uniquely in specific cell types and organs. This differential regulation of DNA synthesis requires crosstalk between DNA replication and differentiation. This dynamic aspect of DNA replication is highlighted by the finding that the distribution of replication origins varies between differentiated cell types and changes with differentiation. Moreover, differential DNA replication in some cell types can lead to increases or decreases in gene copy number along chromosomes. This review highlights the recent advances and technologies that have provided us with new insights into the developmental regulation of DNA replication. 相似文献
