I was watching a TED talk by Venter where he mentioned something about the donor and recipient genomes having different restriction systems making it possible to have the donor strain destroy the recipient DNA. I see from your post that you didn't use this system, but would you think that it would improve the efficiency?
Also, I'd like to ask if you are now planning to build a completely designed genome? And with that I meant that it wouldn't be a replica of a known genome but that it would only have selected genes.
