− | BioBricks are a set of interchangable parts, designed with a view to building biological systems in living cells. The picture to the left shows BioBrick part [[Part:BBa_B0034|BBa_0034]] within a [[Help:Plasmids|plasmid]]. The yellow arrow represents the plasmid's antibiotic resistance gene and the green arrow, its origin of replication.

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