Abstract

The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has been spreading at an extraordinary rate since it first appeared in late 2019, causing a large number of infections and deaths. The COVID-19 pan-demic can be successfully controlled most effectively with vaccines, and efforts are being made globally to create new vaccines. Synthetic biology is a design-oriented field that focus-es on creating novel biological functions by discovering, analyzing, and repurposing biologi-cal components. Many SARS-CoV-2 vaccines have been developed using synthetic biology, and the recent approval of a few more vaccines is evidence of the field's continuous growth. This review discusses the use of synthetic biology technology in the creation of several COVID-19 vaccines, concentrating on how to produce vaccines that are safer and more effec-tive through genome optimization and delivery mechanism optimization. Finally, this article highlights some existing problems of synthetic biology technology and provides an outlook on the future development of application this technology in COVID-19 vaccines.
