Catalogue of public cBooks: Synthetic Biology

Cellucidate Support Dec 08, 2009

This list includes publicly available cBooks on Cellucidate with rich content that will be of interest to other Cellucidate users, either for the purposes of demonstrating how Cellucidate can be used or as sets of agents and rules that could serve as a foundation for new models or be incorporated into existing models. This list is by no means complete and will updated periodically.

Do you have a cBook that you are willing to make publicly available and that you think might be of interest to others?

Just respond to this discussion topic with a link to your cBook and a brief description of why you think it might be of interest to other users and we might incorporate it into a future edition of the catalog :-)

So without further ado, the nominations in the category Synthetic Biology are ...

The Repressillator
This book contains a model of the "repressilator" synthetic oscillatory network described by Elowitz and Leibler in Nature 2000 Jan 20;403(6767):335-8. The repressilator is comprised of a circuit of three transcriptional repressors and is characterized by an oscillatory behavior - hence the name repressilator.

Rule-Based Modeling of BioBrick Parts
This book contains components from the Biobricks catalog, along with models that demonstrate the properties of synthetic systems constructed from these biological modules.
