En la SynBio el diseño de nuevos sistemas biológicos requiere de herramientas moleculares muy precisas, tales como: a) la bioinformática, b) la secuenciación NGS (Next Generation Sequencing), el ensamble y/o síntesis de ADN c) y la edición de genomas a través de CRISPR-Cas9. En la SynBio encontramos además otras disciplinas con un perfil más hacia el ámbito social, las cuales tocan aspectos éticos, legales, filosóficos y económicos, considerándose así una multidisciplina. La SynBio está propiciando el desarrollo de nuevas tecnologías (emergentes) partiendo de una óptica ingenieril. En la SynBio, al ADN se le entiende de forma práctica y abstracta como una serie de partes que se pueden ensamblar en cierto orden para obtener los productos deseados una vez que se conoce la funcionalidad de cada parte. La SynBio ha dado pie a una nueva concepción de la economía a nivel mundial y por consecuencia se ha tomado muy seriamente el termino Bioeconomía como una nueva disciplina que transformará a las sociedades.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract Synthetic biology (SynBio) it is considered a very recent discipline. View as a tool serves to design or re-design biological systems, giving them improved qualities or new qualities. In the SynBio, the design of new biological systems requires very precise molecular tools, such as: a) bioinformatics, b) sequencing NGS (Next Generation Sequencing), assembly and synthesis of DNA c) and CRISPR- Cas9 genome editing. Within the SynBio there are other social profile disciplines which concerned to ethical, legal, philosophical, and economic, and for that reason it is considered a multidiscipline. The SynBio is promoting the development of new (emerging) technologies based on an engineering perspective. In SynBio, DNA is understood in a practical and abstract way as a series of parts that can be assembled in a certain order to obtain the desired products once the functionality of each part is known. The SynBio has given rise to a new conception of the economy worldwide and consequently the term Bioeconomy is already taken very seriously as a new discipline that will transform societies.]]></p></abstract>
