Abstract:
In the last few decades, with the development of recombinant DNA technology, metabolic engineering has made tremendous advances. Synthetic biology is a newly and rapidly emerging discipline. It has great potential in assisting and simplifying the study of metabolic engineering. This review focuses on the recent development of synthetic biology and its application in optimizing metabolic pathway and engineering cellular chassis.
