If you read the article you'd know that that's exactly why organisms such as JCVI-syn3A were created, where we know the (or at least some) function of 80% of the genes.
- bee_rider 3y agoOh wow, a RISC (reduced instruction set cell).
- koeng 3y agoI’m well aware. I was in charge of designing and synthesizing the entire gene set, optimized for E.coli, in order for scientists to easily try to discover the function of these genes https://stanford.freegenes.org/collections/gene-sets/products/jcvi_syn3-0#description https://stanford.freegenes.org/collections/gene-sets/product... Out of the 100 or so unknown genes we had/have, only like 3 unknowns were actually used for research. Such is science sometimes.
