Figure 2

A conceptual scheme describing the integration of systems and synthetic biology. In the upper panel, a ‘cloud’ of systems biology integrates top-down and bottom-up approaches to exploit the omics data. The knowledge from systems biology can guide the design of precision engineering for synthetic biology. The lower panel highlights that the key element of synthetic biology is to develop versatile biotechnological tools for its various applications.
