Synthetic mycoides

Synthetic mycoides refers to an artificial life form created by Craig Venter at the J Craig Venter Institute in May 2010.[1] A synthetic genome was transferred into an empty cell to form the bacterium, which was capable of self replication and functioned solely from the transferred chromosomes.[2]
