Description

Jonathan B. Tucker is helping to track the emerging field of synthetic biology in writing "Double-Edged DNA: Preventing the Misuse of Gene Synthesis" (Issues, Spring 2010) in addition to his 2006 article coauthored with Raymond Zilinskas, "The Promise and Perils of Synthetic Biology" (The New Atlantis). Although the current article effectively states the reasons why a voluntary approach to managing synthetic genomics can be effective, several statements require clarification, consideration, or correction. As early as 2006, Tucker identified and assessed the two main options for screening synthetic nucleic acid orders to address the potential risk posed by the commercial availability of synthetic genetic sequences of concern: (1) requiring U.S. suppliers under the penalty of law to implement mandatory screening, or (2) relying on the due diligence of U.S. providers to prevent malicious uses of their products by voluntarily implementing screening for pathogenic sequences. These options have also been considered by the U.S. government, and the issue is revisited by Tucker in the current article.
