Codon: Notes on Progress #2

Codon

The landmark paper enabled revolutions in insulin biomanufacturing, CAR-T therapies, and the bioproduction of most modern vaccines; in other words, much of what we take for granted today. I recently asked for recommendations of “classic” papers in molecular biology. coli genes into a piece of simian virus DNA.
