With the rapid progress of synthetic biology and other related filed, there is a continuous growth of the applications of genetically modified organisms in many aspects, including industry, agriculture, health and environment. However, unintended release or uncontrolled propagation of these genetically modified organisms may cause significant side effects to the nature ecological environment. In order to eradicate the escaping problem and horizontal gene transfer between artificial and natural organisms, many researches have been focused on how to limit genetically modified organisms to a controlled environment. The research progress of biocontainment of genetically modified organisms mainly from three aspects of traditional biocontainment strategies, the orthogonalization of central dogma and the design of complex genetic networks is highlighted. It is believed that the advanced biocontainment technology would promote the further application of synthetic biology.

Key words: synthetic biology, genetically modified organisms, biosafety, orthogonal central dogma, genetic network
