Introduction
DNA assembly and cloning are critical techniques in synthetic biology that enable researchers to create and modify DNA sequences for various applications, including gene editing, protein engineering, and synthetic biology. Traditional cloning methods, such as restriction enzyme digestion and ligation, can be time-consuming and often result in unwanted mutations or errors. However, recent advancements in DNA assembly and cloning techniques have enabled researchers to construct complex DNA sequences with greater speed, accuracy, and efficiency.
