standard biological parts

Standard biological parts, often called "bio-parts," are carefully designed segments of DNA used in synthetic biology. They function like building blocks—such as promoters that start gene expression, coding sequences that produce proteins, and terminators that signal the end of gene activity. These parts are standardized, meaning they can be easily combined and reused across different genetic constructs, simplifying the process of designing new biological systems. This approach speeds up research and development, enabling scientists to create useful products like medicines, biofuels, and sensors efficiently and reliably.
