Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Synthetic biology aims to create advanced vital functions by combining circuits composed of genetic parts as well as integration methods of electronic circuits to form complexes. In this study, we succeeded in establishing a technology for stepwise integration of genetic parts by cell fusion (mating) of yeast cells having certain functional units. Since this technology can be widely applied to general laboratory yeasts used for academic research, it is possible to make full use of abundant resources existing in gene banks and the like.
