and synthetic biology are two techniques that go hand in hand but differ ever so slightly. It is this slight divergence that makes a world of a difference. Gene editing is defined as the process of editing an organism’s DNA by altering‚ removing or adding nucleotides to the genome. Whereas synthetic biology is defined as a combination of molecular biology and systems biology with engineering principles to design biological systems and bio-factories‚ or the use of molecular biology tools and techniques

It did not even possess the ability to resolve differences between state legislature and interstate commerce.

The purpose of this experiment was to create a new plasmid (pMV158GFP)‚ which lacks the malR protein and is mobile and has the GFP gene to be used to track the flow of genes between bacterial cells through conjugation. A plasmid with these qualities is necessary to create a plasmid that can be transferred to Gram-positive bacteria low in C&G (which are hard to transform with traditional means) by conjugation with other bacteria. Current vectors have the malR regulatory protein which imposes a problem
