We've heard of GMOs, but this is ridiculous. A bombshell report published by scientists at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology revealed a bacteria whose genetic code is said to be more efficient than any other lifeform on earth. They call their creation "Syn57," a bioengineered strain of E. coli which uses seven less codons than all life on earth. A codon, put simply, is a three-letter sequence found in DNA and RNA which delivers instructions for amino acids, a fundamental "building block" of life. For the past billions years or so, all known life on earth has used 64 codons. […]
