Scientists Create Synthetic Bacteria Syn57 With Simplified Genetic Code
A groundbreaking discovery has been made in the world of science! Researchers in England have developed a synthetic strain of E. coli called Syn57, which operates with only 57 codons instead of the usual 64.
This simplified genetic code could make Syn57 resistant to viruses, opening doors for safer industrial applications and even the creation of new amino acids and materials never seen in nature.
Scientists also confirm it has a low risk of spreading into the environment, making it a promising step in synthetic biology.
