Scientists say they've made cells that feed, grow and reproduce, bringing them one step closer to building life from scratch
Knights of science have long chased a biologic holy grail: transforming a soup of raw chemicals into self-sustaining life.
The synthetic cell, nicknamed SpudCell, that can take in nutrients, grow, copy its DNA and divide into daughter cells.
Scientists built SpudCell, a synthetic cell that grows, divides, and passes DNA to offspring from non-living parts.
