Applications of Synthetic Biology in Materials

Biomaterials

Materials refer to the substances or mixture of substances that constitute an object. Materials can be pure or impure, animate or inanimate. Materials can be classified according to their physicochemical properties, geological origin, or biological function. Raw materials that are processed in different ways by purification, shaping, or introducing other materials to influence their properties can be used to produce new materials. Materials are the basis for the development of modern society. In order to keep up with the growing demands from all aspects of human society, there is a strong need to develop advanced materials, as well as manufacturing strategies that are sustainable, tunable, high-efficiency, and low-cost.

With its focus on gene regulation and engineering design, synthetic biology has greatly promoted the development of life sciences. This discipline has also brought novel ideas and injected new vitality into the development of material sciences. The latest advances in synthetic biology are being harnessed to discover new bio-based materials and their sustainable manufacturing routes. Synthetic biology has the capacity to revolutionize the discovery and manufacture of innovative materials through method innovations to tune biomolecules and biosynthetic mechanisms in vivo, ushering in a new era of biologically-inspired materials. The resulting novel, smart, functionalized and hybrid materials hold great promise for a variety of applications such as diagnosis, tissue engineering, and drug delivery.

Current use of synthetic biology for materials

  • Cell-based factory for polymer synthesis.
  • Biosynthesis of inorganic nanomaterials.
  • Screening and optimizing molecular materials.
  • Biological engineered living functional materials.
  • Bio-derived structural materials.
  • Bio-enabled synthesis of metamaterials.
