<p/>This summer, USTC-Software team is going to combine experiment data, genetic circuits and mathematical models into a single software, one that not only enables us to better understand Genetic Regulatory Networks (GRNs), but also provide researchers with complete workflows.

<p/>Genetic Regulatory Network (GRN) has been a major subject in recent researches of synthetic biology, and the modulation of a GRN gives rise to a variety of exciting works among iGEM programs as well as softwares assisting synthetic biology researches. Traditionally, researches of GRNs have been focused on either connecting GRNs with real parts on a plasmid or with experimental data, but complete work that combines the three factors have not been paid enough attention to. Here we propose a project that aims to fully connect them with a software that enables us to study GRNs in a much more efficient way.

<p/>The project starts from using experimental data to generate proper ordinary differential equations (ODEs) that describe the behavior of the given data. With ODEs, we can abstract the possible GRNs and use the Parts available in registry to generate plasmid models that can be used in experiments. In this way, we combine mathematics, biology and experiments, the three main areas supporting a complete iGEM project, in a single software.

<p>This century saw the increasing popularity of synthetic biology, which is a combination of biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, computer science, etc. Greater importance comes with greater concern about the safety and security issues. As a software team, we are not facing the same issues that may caused by bacteria, chemicals and contaminating materials. Still, we are concerned with the possibility of safety problems maybe in or caused our project. We have listed the answers to the safety questions as follows.</p>

Therefore, we want to completely connect these three factors.</p>
-
<p class="answer">A: No. Our project serves to help researchers design the feasible biological circuits with certain behavior, and thus relieve them from heavy experimental work in the lab. And all parts that we suggest are coming from natural E. Coli that have been fully sequenced and understood. So plans generated from our software simulate the behavior researchers want with things that can be found in nature. Therefore, our project will not raise safety issues in terms of researchers, public and environments.</p>

-
<p class="answer">A: Yes. (1) We suggest the registry of standard biological parts should have a dedicated safety page of every part to ensure that users would not raise any safety issue when using them. (2) In addition to safety usage of single part, a database should be setup to store the possible safety issue when using several parts together. (3) With the safety page and database, team of the software development track can write softwares that help researchers search safety issues that may be caused by their experiments.</p>

Reverse Engineering

Reverse Engineering is the process of discovering the inner technological or scientific principles of a device, object or system. Synthetic biology is a combination of biology and engineering, and with the engineering process gets more and more complicated, often it is impossible to easily understand the inside, which is the biological part of the system. Reverse engineering serves perfectly for the purpose to bring back the biological essence.

Genetic Regulatory Networks

Genetic Regulatory Network(GRN) has been a major subject in recent researches of synthetic biology, and the modulation of a GRN gives rise to a variety of exciting works among iGEM programs as well as softwares assisting synthetic biology researches. Traditionally, researches of GRNs have been focused on either connecting GRNs with real parts in the registry or with experimental data. Therefore, we want to completely connect these three factors.

All-in-one Software

In order to fully combine biological networks, experimental data and mathematical models, we build a suite of applications that serves to solve different tasks and make them work seamlessly together. With the all-in-one software suite, you can display experimental data, extract mathematical models, understand the genetic regulatory networks and get a well-designed report of the results. We designed the user interfaces to be fun to interact with and easy to use.

Machine Learning

Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence that is widely used in many disciplines such as software engineering, computer vision, finance, Neuroscience and bioinformatics. During reverse engineering, we use many machine learning techniques and algorithms to help optimize the process so that the process is faster and more accurate.
