A new technique to clone and reassemble DNA could simplify and lower the cost of making synthetic chromosomes, according to its creators at University of Southern California (USC) Dornsife. The thing about most synthetic genomics research is that it involves building chromosomes or genomes from scratch using chemically synthesised DNA pieces.
