OpenPlantSynthetic Biology Research CentreOpenPlant is a BBSRC-EPSRC funded Synthetic Biology Research Centre. It is based in

the United Kingdom and is a collaboration between the University of Cambridge and

the John Innes Centre and The Sainsbury Laboratory, Norwich. The OpenPlant SBRC

is focused on the development of open foundational technologies for plant synthetic

biology and their application for engineering new traits in crop systems.

OpenPlant will (i) fund interdisciplinary eforts in plant Synthetic Biology, to explore

novel foundational technologies and applications, build shared resources and

provide a point of exchange for young scientists and entrepreneurs; (ii) promote

two-tier intellectual property models that will promote sharing of DNA components

and freedom-to-operate for commercial applications of plant synthetic biology,

and (iii) address responsible innovation, and explore the potential wider impacts of

synthetic biology on sustainable practices in agriculture, bioproduction, land use

and environmental conservation. (http://www.openplant.org)

Foundational technologies

As part of the OpenPlant initiative, we will implement:

open-source DNA registries for sharing plant specifc

parts;Marchantia polymorpha as a major new plant

chassis for Synthetic Biology; new DNA parts for the

control and quantitative imaging of genetic circuits in

plants; techniques for routine genome-scale engineering

in plants; and software tools with improved performance

for assembly of synthetic gene circuits and cellular

morphogenesis.

Trait Engineering

The development of new foundational tools and parts

will directly contribute to the engineering of new traits

in plants, such as: altered photosynthesis and leaf

structure; modifed production of plant carbohydrates;

engineered pathways for the metabolic engineering

of natural products; new forms of symbiosis and

nitrogen fxation; methods for high level production of

biomolecules by virus-derived mechanisms.

Positions available

A number of these positions are available immediately. Applications for the frst round of positions will close on

September 1st, 2014. Details can be found at http://www.openplant.org, as well as at each participating institution,
