I am creating artificial life, declares US gene pioneer Scientist has made synthetic chromosome ·
Break through could combat global warming
Craig Venter, the controversial DNA researcher involved in the race to decipher the human genetic code, has built a synthetic chromosome out of laboratory chemicals and is poised to announce the creation of the first new artificial life form on Earth.
The announcement, which is expected within weeks and could come as early as Monday at the annual meeting of his scientific institute in San Diego, California, will herald a giant leap forward in the development of designer genomes. It is certain to provoke heated debate about the ethics of creating new species and could unlock the door to new energy sources and techniques to combat global warming.
The new clones will have special mutated lungs that will not expel CO2 when the clone exhales. I made this up for a laugh, don't believe the lung part.
WELL, WHAT'S NEXT???????
