→Expanded genetic codes (synthetic biology): wikilinked E. coli; replaced text with abbreviation form (instead of full name) - general audiences might be more familiar with the name "E. coli" than "Escherichia coli". |
→Expanded genetic codes (synthetic biology): moved bacteria's wikilink up to the first occurence of the paragraph; used abbreviation for E. coli; wikilinked genetic viability. |

H. Murakami and M. Sisido extended some codons to have four and five bases. [[Steven A. Benner]] constructed a functional 65th (''[[in vivo]]'') codon.<ref name="isbn0-387-22046-1">{{cite book|first=Matthew |last=Simon | name-list-style = vanc | title = Emergent Computation: Emphasizing Bioinformatics|url={{google books |plainurl=y |id=Uxg51oZNkIsC|page=105}}|date=7 January 2005|publisher=Springer Science & Business Media|isbn=978-0-387-22046-8|pages=105–106}}</ref>
In 2015 [[Nediljko Budisa|N. Budisa]], [[Dieter Söll|D. Söll]] and co-workers reported the full substitution of all 20,899 [[tryptophan]] residues (UGG codons) with unnatural thienopyrrole-alanine in the genetic code of the [[Bacteria|bacterium]] ''[[Escherichia coli|E. coli]]''.<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Hoesl | first1 = M.

In 2016 the first stable semisynthetic organism was created. It was a (single cell) bacterium with two synthetic bases (called X and Y). The bases survived cell division.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.kurzweilai.net/first-stable-semisynthetic-organism-created|title=First stable semisynthetic organism created {{!}} KurzweilAI|date=3 February 2017|website=www.kurzweilai.net|access-date=2017-02-09}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Zhang Y, Lamb BM, Feldman AW, Zhou AX, Lavergne T, Li L, Romesberg FE | title = A semisynthetic organism engineered for the stable expansion of the genetic alphabet| journal = Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America | volume = 114 | issue = 6 | pages = 1317–1322 | date = February 2017 | pmid = 28115716 | doi = 10.1073/pnas.1616443114 | pmc=5307467| bibcode = 2017PNAS..114.1317Z| doi-access = free}}</ref>
