Liljeruhm J., Gullberg E., Forster A.C. Synthetic Biology. A Lab Manual

World Scientific Publishing Company, 2014. — 204 p. — ISBN: 978-9814579544 (pbk. : alk. paper), ISBN: 9814579548 (pbk. : alk. paper)Synthetic Biology: A Lab Manual is the first manual for laboratory work in the new and rapidly expanding field of synthetic biology. Aimed at non-specialists, it details protocols central to synthetic biology in both education and research. In addition, it provides all the information that teachers and students from high schools and tertiary institutions need for a colorful lab course in bacterial synthetic biology using chromoproteins and designer antisense RNAs. As a bonus, practical material is provided for students of the annual international Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) competition. The manual is based upon a highly successful course at Sweden's Uppsala University and is coauthored by one of the pioneers of synthetic biology and two bioengineering postgraduate students.
