Module 3: Genome Deletion Overview
Module 3 is the final module of the system. The E.ncapsulator has completed its job of drug production and drug packaging. It will now induce cell death and remove any potentially harmful genetic material. It achieves this by triggering the production of restriction enzymes which will digest all the genetic material. A methylation system prevents leaky levels of restriction enzymes from killing the cell prematurely.
About the ethical implications of live organisms.
