Designing promoters with desirable properties is crucial in synthetic biology. DeepSEED, an AI-aided framework, combines expert knowledge with deep learning to efficiently design synthetic promoters by optimizing flanking sequences. It successfully improved the properties of *E. coli* constitutive and inducible, and mammalian Dox-inducible promoters. DeepSEED captures implicit features in flanking sequences like k-mer frequencies and DNA shape, crucial for promoter properties.
