10 POINTS GURANTEED FOR BEST ANSWER! =D
"This is the question bringing up the rear recent attempts to model and eventually create minimal organisms, which we define as living cell having the smallest set of genes required to survive and reproduce. Craig Venter and Claire Fraser just now found that MYCOPLASMA genitalium, a bacterium that has 517 genes (and 2,209 transposons), is a suitable candidate for offering the genes to work beside. By disabeling its genes one at a time in the laboratory, they discovered that it may hold only 265-350 essential protein coding-genes. What if those genes be to be synthesized one at a time and inserted into an engineered cell consisting only of a plasma membrane and cytoplasm? WOULD THE CELL come to LIFE?"
Cell function is not the simple stabilizer contribution of individual genes; there are interactions stirring which increase the complexity enormously. Just throwing the genes contained by a lipid bilayer with a touch cytoplasm is not going to make a functional cell ever, anymore than throwing a director, 2 arms, 2 legs and a torso in a giant vat will manufacture a functional body.
WHAT IF??......IScientits have be ding this for the past 40 some plus years.
