Re: [DIYbio] Re: International DIY-Bio Project

Very cool! Here's the original article:

Combining two genomes in one cell: Stable cloning of the Synechocystis PCC6803 genome in the Bacillus subtilis 168 genome
http://www.pnas.org/content/102/44/15971.full

It's not clear that they were actually able to get the resulting organism to grow photosynthetically though - seems like they would have made a much bigger deal of it if that was the case.

I just came across the key word CyanoBacillus. 2005 one researcher combined the genome of those two. 

Sounds awesome, perfact for a starting point as Mars bacterium. It can make spores, so it survives everything. And it can do photosynthesis.

Gotta go to university, but surely will dig up papers about it. A quick google resarch didn't show much though...
