...decades.Synthetic biology will be a fact of the 21st century—the question is whether governing bodies will be prepared. The infrastructure to deal with safety concerns needs to be put in place now to avoid future problems.Venter and his team have already succeeded in creating a synthetic chromosome??based on the DNA sequence of the active bacterium Mycoplasma gentitalium. Their artificial chromosome was built entirely from available chemicals and has been christened, Mycoplasma labortorium. In theory, the chromosome could be transplanted into an empty bacterial cell and replicate itself thereafter. Synthetic Genomics has already filed...
...public service includes $14 million of funding to graduate students in these fields, and his commitment to advancing the sciences at the University has led to increased funding and his suggestion that every student must know the now-infamous “difference between a gene and a chromosome?? has led to a curricular review...
