Abstract

The article offers information on the success of biologists and researchers to in copying an existing genetic code, but were not yet commercialized. It notes the significance of technology to help researchers work on several genes at a time. It mentions the technology created by the Venter Institute to build and transplant a genome which took them for 15 years. It suggests researchers to be able to copy natural genomes before creating new ones.
