The use of yeast artificial chromosomes has enabled the speedy genetic reconstruction of the unconventional coronavirus. Researchers have generated a full-length a dead ringer for the novel coronavirus genome using synthetic chromosomes in brewers’ yeast, in keeping with a paper published in Nature on Monday (May 4).
