INSTRUCTIONS
- Search for lab-relevant articles dated May 2015 up to today. You can use PubMed or go directly to the journal's website.
- Be prepared to give a 3-minute summary of why the article should be read by the group.
- Use the following text format EXACTLY as it is shown in the example below...
# (2011) Engineering a Photoactivated Caspase-7 for Rapid Induction of Apoptosis. Evan Mills, Xi Chen, Elizabeth Pham, Stanley Wong, and Kevin Truong et al. ACS Synthetic Biology, 1.3:75-82. Link.
Summary: A group from University of Toronto developed a protein that causes rapid apotosis (cell death) of targeted cells.

- (2015) BASIC: A New Biopart Assembly Standard for Idempotent Cloning Provides Accurate, Single-Tier DNA Assembly for Synthetic Biology. Storch M, Casini A, and Fleming T et al. ACS Synth Biol. 4(7):781-7. http://pubs.acs.org.ezproxy1.lib.asu.edu/doi/abs/10.1021/sb500356d. Summary: The authors propose a type IIs restriction enzyme based cloning standard, BASIC (Biopart Assembly Standard for Idempotent Cloning), that utilizes orthogonal linkers to build multi-gene constructs. A unique element of this strategy is the use of the linkers as small parts such as RBS sequences or fusion protein linkers.
- (2015) CRISPathBrick: Modular Combinatorial Assembly of Type II-A CRISPR Arrays for dCas9-Mediate Multiplex Transcriptional Repression in E. coli. Brady F. Cress, O. Duhan Toparlak, and Mattheos A.

ACS Synth Biol. 4(9):987-1000. http://pubs.acs.org.ezproxy1.lib.asu.edu/doi/10.1021/acssynbio.5b00012.Summary: This paper describes a vector system with rapid modular assembly that allows for the use of type II-A CRISPR arrays to simultaneously repress multiple gene loci in E. coli. Repression in the system is based on dCas9 binding.

Journal of Biological Engineering
- (2015) Artificial cell-cell communication as an emerging tool in synthetic biology applications. Stefan Hennig,corresponding author Gerhard Rödel, and Kai Ostermann. J Biol Eng. 9:13. Link.
Summary: Review paper on cell signaling of interest to synthetic biologists, including quorum sensing, fungal pheromones, and communication systems in mammalian systems. Emphasis is on multiple cell subtypes within a networked population to reduce crosstalk and metabolic load of cell-cell communication system. - (2015) No training required: experimental tests support homology-based DNA assembly as a best practice in synthetic biology.

Summary: A bit of insider baseball, but the paper argues that the registry for standard biological parts and iGEM should include homology-based assembly methods in addition to the standard 3 antibiotic (3A) assembly method, due to the ease of setting up homology-based assembly.

- (2015) Targeting Polycomb systems to regulate gene expression: modifications to a complex story. Neil Blackledge, Nathan Rose, Robert Kloseet et al. Nature. 16: 643-649 Link.
Summary: A group from University of Oxford, UK have an alternative model for the Polyomb Repressive Complex, where initially complexes in PRC1 apart from chromobox (CBX) bind to chromatin, which then promotes the binding of PRC2. This initial process of binding is then independent from PRC2 and H3K27me3. - (2015) Epigenetic regulation of ageing: linking environmental inputs to genomic stability. Elizabeth Pollina, Berenice Benayoun, Anne Brunet et al. Nature, 16:593-610. Link.
Summary: A group from Stanford University finds that changes in H3K27me3 are correlated to longevity. Although in in different cells, up-regulation or down-regulation was needed to achieve longevity.
