The paper I cited above is a specific example of a team constructing a virus from a RNA sequence that they bought commercially, and then using it to infect human cells in vitro. The virus they constructed is a coronavirus very similar to sars-cov-2. Note that the spike sequence was provided by the Wuhan lab, and it's the spike sequence that makes sars-cov-2 so infectious.
