Fun with DNA<br><br>Imagine a yellow smiley face. Now imagine 50 billion smiley faces floating in a single drop of water. That's what scientists have made using a new technique for building super-tiny shapes using the familiar double helix of DNA.<br><br>

Pretty cool, but I'm stickin' with Leggos.<br><br><br><br><br>[color:blue]And I'm the one that jaded you . . .</font color=blue>

See this is what they waste money on. Finding ways to put 50 billion smiley faces on water. Well I for one don't need smiley faces on my water thank you very much. I'm writing my senator right now!<br><br>[color:purple] st911.org</font color=purple>

One must crawl before they can walk grass hopper.<br>What scares me is that one day someone will make a monster thats live.<br>On the other hand if they create "replicas" = blade runner type then I would be all for it <br><br>

NO! I WON'T STAND FOR IT! THIS IS AN OUTRAGE! AN OUTRAGE I TELL YOU!<br><br>[color:purple] st911.org</font color=purple>

There is a use. Think of a cage of DNa stapled together with a potent toxin captured inside. The outside rungs of the cage encode for DNA which is homologous to a strand of DNA which has gone haywire and is replicating to initiate a mechanism which causes cancer, (I'm cramming a lot of steps into a wee space here to keep from writing a tome.) So this cage then targets specifically the DNA which needs to be inhibited.<br><br>Someone in my institute is using this technique. It works. The smiley faces are just gravy on the side.<br><br><br><br>(__*__)(__*__)(__*__)(__*__)(__*__)(__*__)

Could you repeat that?<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>[color:blue]And I'm the one that jaded you . . .</font color=blue>

And yet you don't get sarcasm. Hmm. <br><br>[color:purple] st911.org</font color=purple>

Oh I got you sarcasm. I just couldn't miss the opportunity to pontificate on my favorite subject.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>(__*__)(__*__)(__*__)(__*__)(__*__)(__*__)
