Synthetic genomes for synthetic biology
J Mol Cell Biol.
2010 Aug.
Abstract
A genome synthesized entirely from scratch has been used to replace the native genome of a living cell, thus creating a new cell. This achievement marks a new frontier in synthetic biology to design and create genomes for organisms with few genetic tools and for applications in areas of energy, health care and the environment.
