To create the polio virus the researchers downloaded the genetic makeup of the polio virus off of an internet server. Now the difference between polio and most other organisms is that its genetic makeup is composed of RNA as opposed to DNA. Since RNA can’t be synthetically created in a lab the researchers needed to translate the RNA base sequence into DNA (which can be synthetically made in a lab). With this DNA product the scientists added transcriptase to the mix along with the RNA bases and the lo and behold the RNA was formed. The scientists then created a “juice” for the RNA to create a virus within. This “juice” consisted of shredded u
