Improving on God?
March 28, 2014 at 12:55 am
"Designer' chromosome for brewer's yeast built from scratch"

http://www.theguardian.com/science/2014/...cerevisiae

"In a project that took seven years, the scientists streamlined the chromosome by removing non-essential genes and replacing them with fresh DNA to produce new strains of yeast."

So now we too can create life - or we will be able to shortly.

Game changer?

You really are horny at the moment aren't you. I'm not sure I've ever been THAT horny.

I can be uncannily intuitive for a guy sometimes - reading between the lines of your subtle messages.

You think that creating some artificial chromosomes out of pre-existing strands of DNA is akin to the creation of life? ... Hehe Not even close.

Even if we can ''create'' life in a similar way, it doesn't mean we should. I'm not on the bandwagon of ''cloning,'' either.

Yeah, I think this is cool, but the hype doesn't match the result; this is not exactly "from scratch."
