GMO THC PDQ

[robkelk]

Berkeley scientists genetically modify yeast to produce cannabinoids, including THC.

For research purposes. Really.

But the team didn't stop there; they realised that the enzymatic steps involved in making the CBGA were flexible, so they tried out different starter chemicals in the place of the one the marijuana plant used. This generates cannabinoids that don't exist in nature, offering up more targets for medical research.

.... Okay, now THAT is intriguing. I hope they manage to make something REALLY useful.

That'd make some beer that would.
