When Werner Arber (1929- ), Daniel Nathans (1928-1999) & Hamilton O. Smith (1931- ) won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1988 for the discovery of restriction enzymes, Wacław Szybalski wrote in an editorial comment in the journal Gene: "The work on restriction nucleases not only permits us easily to construct recombinant DNA molecules and to analyze individual genes, but also has led us into the new era of synthetic biology where not only existing genes are described and analyzed but also new gene arrangements can be constructed and evaluated."
