中国“合成生物学”973项目研究进展

Progress in synthetic biology of “973 Funding Program” in China

摘要:

本文回顾了自2011年我国启动“合成生物学”973项目以来所取得的进展。到2014年底为止，我国共启动了9个“合成生物学”973项目，主要集中在微生物制造，加上最近启动的一个动物和一个植物的合成生物学项目，体现了我国以制造业为主，并向复杂的动物和植物逐渐推进的国家战略。

Abstract:

This paper reviews progresses made in China from 2011 in areas of “Synthetic Biology” supported by State Basic Research 973 Program. Till the end of 2014, 9 “synthetic biology” projects have been initiated with emphasis on “microbial manufactures” with the 973 Funding Program. Combined with the very recent launch of one project on “mammalian cell synthetic biology” and another on “plant synthetic biology”, Chinese “synthetic biology” research reflects its focus on “manufactures” while not giving up efforts on “synthetic biology” of complex systems.
