Abstract

Synthetic biosensors leverage genetically encoded biorecognition components for specifically identified targets and convert them into quantifiable biological signals. These signals can then be processed through genetic circuits to achieve customized signal processing and produce multi-modular signal outputs. Synthetic biosensors offer several compelling advantages including high biocompatibility

low cost

and sustainability

which have shown significant application potentials in environmental monitoring

biomanufacturing

and precision diagnostics. Advances in synthetic biology methods and technological developments

particularly the adoption of various engineering design principles

genetic circuit-enabled programmable signal processing

and AI-assisted mining

and

de novo

design of biological components

have provided unprecedented momentum for developing new generation synthetic biosensors. However

the practical applications of synthetic biosensors have been restricted by certain technical limitations in sensing performance including sensitivity

specificity

speed

stabilit

and biosafety

termed as the “5S” challenges. Here we summarize the signal recognition mechanisms and design principles of representative genetic circuit-enabled synthetic biosensors

and provide an in-depth analysis of their technical advantages and remaining challenges. Furthermore

we highlight typical genetic circuit-enabled functional expansion modules for myriad application scenarios. Finally

we introduce the key features of synthetic biosensors and the latest optimization methods for improving sensing performance. We conclude by discussing the challenges and opportunities for accelerating the development of new generation synthetic biosensors for achieving sustainable

affordable

and reliable detection in diverse settings.
