Artificial Gene Synthesis - Episode #6 of 5-Minute-Reviews - Generation Genome Media

With the rise of the new age of synthetic biology, we are quickly redefining how we look at life from a molecular standpoint. Our genetic code is becoming more malleable, opening the door to new innovations to solve some of the worlds problems. Artificial Gene synthesis involved chemically synthesize a strand of DNA base-by-base. It is not like the process in our body like polymerase chain reaction because it does not require a template strand. The first gene synthesis came around in the 1960s but the de novo synthesis has greatly improved since then with our vast knowledge about the human genome and epigenome. In this episode, I talk about the procedure and applications of artificial gene synthesis.
