Gene Synthesis Definition
The traditional method of studying a gene’s function is to extract the gene of interest, amplify it and put the resulting sequence through various molecular assessments. These assessments can vary from generating a frameshift mutation within the sequence, to upregulating the expression of the sequence in order to observe the resulting phenotypes the mutated sequence […]

Gene Synthesis Promotion
After its discovery and first successful application of gene synthesis in the early 1970s, by Har Gobind Khorana and associates, it has become a frequently used method within genetics and other biological research fields. Gene synthesis has a simple definition but long lasting impacts on the genetics research community and various other fields of research. […]
Gene Synthesis Mutagenesis
One of the fundamental ways to study the function of a gene is to void, knockout, its function and observe the resulting phenotype. This void of function, commonly known as mutagenesis, has been practice within the field of genetics for many years and has been proven effective countless times. A more commonly utilized method of […]
Gene Synthesis Cost
Moore’s Law has been applied and shown in various industries ranging from the tech industry to the biotech industry. Moore’s Law has most notably shown within the field of genetics when analyzing the cost of sequencing the human genome. The first whole genome sequencing was conducted on a human in the early 2000s, and costed […]
Gene Synthesis by PCR
Prior to the 1970s traditional cloning was used in order to amplify a gene of interest. This process of gene synthesis by PCR is still used today, but relies on a laborious process of achieving the final amplified product. Traditional cloning relies on recombinant DNA being integrated into a bacteria host’s genome. Once the DNA […]
Molecular Biology Cloning
Molecular biology cloning Molecular cloning is one method in molecular biology that is commonly used to amplify a genetic sequence of interest. This is accomplished by inserting recombinant DNA into a vector which can then carry DNA fragments in host organisms to be amplified. This process of amplification is based on molecular biology standard, first […]

GC-Rich Gene Synthesis
Gene synthesis is the technology of artificially synthesizing double-stranded DNA in vitro, and is a crucially important technique in molecular biology. Conventional gene synthesis generally involves assembling small segments of DNA and/or amplifying known samples of genetic material, and requires the raw nucleobases guanine, cytosine, adenine, thymine and uracil as starting materials. GC-content (guanine-cytosine content) […]
