As proof of principle, Barbas's team has taken human cells and inserted a gene that their ZFR would recognise. They then used the recombinase to insert the gene into the cells' genome.
It is now possible to sequence a complete genome for as little as $5, 000, according to Landis -- still a little bit too pricey for everyone to have his genome studied.
