Diagnostics based on synthetic biology provide a real-time, specific & sensitive, and noninvasive process for detecting cancer cells, infectious agents, and therapeutics. Researchers use rational engineering approaches to make novel biosensing systems that are dynamic and constituted of a sensor, processor, and reporter. 

Bio-fuels is the largest revenue-generating, non-healthcare application. Synthetic biology has created the possible way for the fourth generation of biofuels. Researchers are involved in developing alternative biofuel molecules as these are expected to have the potential to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. 

By End-use Analysis

The biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies segment dominated the market with a revenue share of more than 51% in 2020. Synthetic biology has helped biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies to develop novel drugs, which can treat chronic conditions.

Various companies have used synthetic biology to engineer pathways that enable microorganisms to produce medically relevant drugs. For instance, Amyris Inc. engineered yeast strains to develop the antimalarial drug Artemenisin. Moreover, synthetic biology can also improve in-vitro drug production.

Technological advancements in this field further stimulate the growth of the market. Computational protein design develops proteins from scratch and makes calculated variants of protein design and variants of protein structure. Scientists can create innovative enzymes that are not common to nature.

By Regional Analysis

North America accounted for the largest revenue share of over 40% in 2020 due to the increased investments for the development of synthetic biology products, favorable regulations, and government assistance. 

Rising support from the U.S. government & private institutions and increasing research and development investments in drug discovery and development are expected to propel the market growth over the forecast years.
