GENETTA: a Network-Based Tool for the Analysis of Complex Genetic Designs

ACS Synth Biol. 2023 Dec 15;12(12):3766-3770. doi: 10.1021/acssynbio.3c00333. Epub 2023 Nov 14.

Abstract

GENETTA is a software tool that transforms synthetic biology designs into networks using graph theory for analysis and manipulation. By representing complex data as interconnected points, GENETTA allows dynamic customization of visualizations, including interaction networks and parts hierarchies. It can also merge design data from multiple databases, providing a unified perspective. The generated interactive network can be edited by adding nodes and edges, simplifying changes to existing design files. This article presents GENETTA and its features through specific use cases, showcasing its practical applications.

Keywords: SBOL; computer-aided design; data analysis; genetic design; knowledge graph; networks.
