Researchers 1 step closer to 'Life'

An anonymous reader writes: Researchers at the Scripps Research Institute are potentially one step closer to creating 'life.' In an experiment they recently created enzymes that can replicate and 'evolve.' "It kind of blew me away," said team member Tracey Lincoln of the Scripps Research Institute, who is working on her Ph.D. "What we have is non-living, but we've been able to show that it has some life-like properties, and that was extremely interesting."
