1. A method of generating a synthetic targeted virus for a cancer cell from a reference virus for a normal cell, comprising:
for each codon in a given position in the reference virus that codes for a given amino acid, identifying a codon frequency for each codon that codes for the given amino acid in the cancer cell;
selecting a codon for the given amino acid in the cancer cell that best corresponds to the codon in the reference virus;
using the selected codon for the given amino acid in the cancer cell in a location in the synthetic targeted virus that matches the given position in the reference virus.
