Synthetic Developmental Biology: Understanding Through Reconstitution.
Reconstitution is an experimental strategy that seeks to recapitulate biological events outside their natural contexts using a reduced set of components. Classically, biochemical reconstitution has been extensively applied to identify the minimal set of molecules sufficient for recreating the basic chemistry of life. By analogy, reconstitution approaches to developmental biology recapitulate aspects of developmental events outside an embryo, with the goal of revealing the basic genetic circuits or physical cues sufficient for recreating developmental decisions. The rapidly growing repertoire of genetic, molecular, microscopic, and bioengineering tools is expanding the complexity and precision of reconstitution experiments. We review the emerging field of synthetic developmental biology, with a focus on the ways in which reconstitution strategies and new biological tools have enhanced our modern understanding of fundamental questions in developmental biology.
期刊介绍:
The Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, established in 1985, comprehensively addresses major advancements in cell and developmental biology. Encompassing the structure, function, and organization of cells, as well as the development and evolution of cells in relation to both single and multicellular organisms, the journal explores models and tools of molecular biology. As of the current volume, the journal has transitioned from gated to open access through Annual Reviews' Subscribe to Open program, making all articles published under a CC BY license.
