Mechanism Branch

Layer 1

Mechanisms

▾

Top-level concepts: biophysical action modes such as heterodimerization, photocleavage, or RNA binding.

Layer 2

Architectures

▾

Arrangements that realize or deploy mechanisms, including switches, construct patterns, and delivery strategies.

Layer 3

Components

▾

Low-level parts and sequence-defined elements used inside architectures, including protein domains and RNA elements.

Technique Branch

Layer 1

Approaches

▾

High-level engineering practices such as computational design, directed evolution, sequence verification, and functional assay.

Layer 2

Methods

▾

Concrete methods used to design, build, verify, or characterize engineered systems.

Special emphasis is placed on BMCs for their spatial precision, selective permeability, and ability to encapsulate multi-enzyme pathways. Recent advances in synthetic biology, from orthogonal shell engineering to modular cargo recruitment, underscore their transformative potential for pathway design and metabolic control.
