Overview

When we start our iGEM project, we spent a few weeks to read papers in synthetic biology and review previous projects. We realized that there is no website or database that has systematically record all existing synthetic biology projects. Inspired by the Registry of Standard Biological Part database, we came up with an ambitious plan that we should make the Registry of Standard Genetic Circuit. Our goal is to collect all previous iGEM projects and all published synthetic biology projects. The documentation of genetic circuits follows the general principle of biobrick foundation: Standardization, all description of genetic circuits should adopt the same format.

Our database is not static. Users are able to submit their genetic circuit design to our database. Users can also add their comments and experiences to circuits.

Our database is not only a collection of published circuits but also provide a user friendly platform to redesign and improve the circuits. We provide LGD, a logical genetic designer. LGD is also a computer aided graphical designer integrated into our database. User can modify the circuits in the database for their purpose.

The ultimate goal of our project is to promote sharing in synthetic biology community! We have a future plan of establishing a community based on Mind Road and LGD, for we clearly know the importance of sharing design. To make the sharing efficient and effective, we proposed a technique standard for documentation of a genetic circuit.
