摘要

Abstract

This review systematically examines the current research status and application progress of synthetic biology technology

and dissects its core technology system and typical application scenarios. At the technical level

the evolution of key directions such as DNA synthesis

genome construction

gene circuit design and biosensors is briefly described; at the application level

representative practices of the technology in areas such as drug production

medical diagnosis and treatment

industrial manufacturing and food nutrition are temporarily introduced. Through a critical review of the literature

it is noted that current research still faces challenges in terms of insufficient methodological validation and limited industrialization. Finally

the future direction of synthetic biology in interdisciplinary integration

intelligent design

and addressing global challenges is envisioned

emphasizing the need to strengthen original technology research and development

improve the industrial ecosystem and governance structure to promote the healthy and sustainable development of the field.
