Development of a domain-specific genetic language to design Chlamydomonas reinhardtii expression vectors

Authors Mandy L Wilson, Sakiko Okumoto, Laura Adam, Jean Peccoud Publication date 2013/11/8 Journal Bioinformatics Volume30 Issue2 Pages 251-257 Abstract Motivation: Expression vectors used in different biotechnology applications are designed with domain-specific rules. For instance, promoters, origins of replication or homologous recombination sites are host-specific. Similarly, chromosomal integration or viral delivery of an expression cassette imposes specific …

A step-by-step introduction to rule-based design of synthetic genetic constructs using GenoCAD

Authors Mandy L Wilson, Russell Hertzberg, Laura Adam, Jean Peccoud Publication date 2011/1/1 Book Methods in enzymology Volume 498 Pages 173-188 GenoCAD is an open source web-based system that provides a streamlined, rule-driven process for designing genetic sequences. GenoCAD provides a graphical interface that allows users to design sequences consistent with formalized design strategies specific …

Modeling structure-function relationships in synthetic DNA sequences using attribute grammars

Authors Yizhi Cai, Matthew W Lux, Laura Adam, Jean Peccoud Publication date 2009/10/9 Journal PLoS computational biology Volume5 Issue10 Pages e1000529 Abstract Recognizing that certain biological functions can be associated with specific DNA sequences has led various fields of biology to adopt the notion of the genetic part. This concept provides a finer level of granularity than the …
