Scientists take step toward creating artificial life
In a major step toward creating artificial life, U.S. researchers have developed a living organism that incorporates both natural and artificial DNA and is capable of creating entirely new, synthetic proteins, Reuters reports.
The work, published in the journal Nature, brings scientists closer to the development of designer proteins made to order in a laboratory.
