Physical parts in the DNA Repository have been designed to be assembled into systems using normal cloning techniques based on restriction enzymes, purification, ligation, and transformation - with a twist: BioBrick parts are composable. The result of assembling two parts is a new part that may be used in future assemblies.

Standard Assembly

Bricks.png

BioBrick parts can be assembled to form useful devices, through a process often referred to as 'Standard Assembly'. This uses normal cloning techniques based on restriction enzymes, purification, ligation, and transformation. BioBrick parts are [[composable; allowing endless numbers of biobricks to be pieced together to form complex systems.


Parallel Assembly

BioBrick systems may contain many parts. One could spend many weeks building a 50-part system by assembling the first two parts, adding the third part, adding the fourth part, and so on. However, because BioBrick assembly is composable, assembly need not be done sequentially - Find out more...
