Cryptococcus neoformans Database in Synthetic Biology Open Language

Cryptococcus neoformans is the etiologic agent of cryptococcosis, a lethal worldwide disease. Synthetic biology could contribute to its better understanding through engineering genetic networks. However, its major challenge is the requirement of accessible genetic parts. The database presented here provides 23 biological parts for this organism in Synthetic Biology Open Language.

Automated summary

This study presents a database containing 23 biological parts for Cryptococcus neoformans, the etiologic agent of cryptococcosis, which could contribute to a better understanding of this lethal disease through synthetic biology.
