Abstract
The website "Registry of Standard Biological Parts" promotes the development of synthetic biology through providing genetic parts. To expand its influence in data exchange, we found it necessary to build an app client for it. In order to save time in searching BioBrick, simplify the process of selecting classifications, and facilitate changing selected category, we will be devoted to adjust database structure so that we can change the interface of BioBrick searching into spinner-formed .
Motivation
Nowadays, the focal point of electronic devices is shifting from fixed to portable, people use mobile devices routinely for convenience and efficiency. The Registry of Standard Biological Parts website does not fit the operating system of iPhone, which is used widely. Creating a client of this website for iPhone will enable people to obtain biosynthetic information on their mobile devices. This client will benefit biologists and others who are interested in biosynthesis.
Background
Registry of Standard Biological Parts is a website that provides a collection of biological parts with known functions used in synthetic biology, ranging from plasmids to protein generators. The parts conform to BioBrick standard and form a categorization system so that new genetic parts can be simply constructed through hierarchy implement. Based on the "get some, to give some" principle, the resource is continuously improved and cooperation among researchers is achieved. The active role of the website in promoting the development of synthetic biology is self-evident. On the other hand, the ubiquitous mobile device shows that traditional websites cannot satisfy our needs to update data and disseminate the information timely. A client on mobile devices seems necessary. According to statistical data, the user amount of iPhone is rather huge, which implies that iPhone client might be an excellent choice.
