摘要:
The presently disclosed invention relates to methods of installing a genome isolated from one species (the donor) into suitably prepared cells of a second species (the recipient). Introduction of the donor genetic material into the recipient host cell effectively converts the recipient host cell into a new cell that, as a result of the operation of the donated genetic material, is functionally classified as belonging to the genus and species of the donor genetic material.

Compositions and methods are disclosed herein for cloning a donor genome in a heterologous host cell. In one embodiment, the donor genome can be further modified within a host cell. Modified or unmodified genomes can be further isolated from the host cell and transferred to a recipient cell. Methods disclosed herein can be used to alter donor genomes from intractable donor cells in more tractable host cells.

A method to assemble any desired nucleic acid molecule by combining cassettes in vitro to form assemblies which are further combined in vivo, or by assembling large numbers of DNA fragments by recombination in a yeast culture to obtain desired DNA molecules of substantial size is described.

摘要:
A method is provided for introducing a genome into a cell or cell-like system. The introduced genome may occur in nature, be manmade with or without automation, or may be a hybrid of naturally occurring and manmade materials. The genome is obtained outside of a cell with minimal damage. Materials such as a proteins, RNAs, polycations, nucleoid condensation proteins, or gene translation systems may accompany the genome. The genome is installed into a naturally occurring cell or into a manmade cell-like system. A cell-like system or synthetic cell resulting from the practice of the provided method may be designed and used to yield gene-expression products, such as desired proteins. By enabling the synthesis of cells or cell-like systems comprising a wide variety of genomes, accompanying materials and membrane types, the provided method makes possible a broader field of experimentation and bioengineering than has been available using prior art methods.
摘要:
The disclosed invention relates to the generation of host cells containing rare codons and/or absent tRNAs, and the use of orthogonal tRNA systems that can insert a non-standard amino acid into a growing peptide chain. This invention combined with the capacity to synthesize whole genomes has important implications in synthetic biology, as it allows the rewriting of the genetic code of existing or newly designed organisms.
