[http://www.tinkercell.com TinkerCell] is being developed by [http://openwetware.org/wiki/User:Deepak_Chandran Deepak Chandran] as part of his PhD work with the [http://www.sys-bio.org/ Sauro Lab]. It's a synthetic biology CAD tool can be used to design and model genetic networks and other complex sets of reactions. Eventually, it will retrieve a list of available parts from sources like the [http://www.partsregistry.org/Main_Page Parts Registry], but for now generic parts must be added and their parameters specified manually.
The iGEM team is writing [http://www.python.org/ Python] plugins to extend its functionality using the [http://tinkercell.sourceforge.net/CAPI/index.html Plugin API].
