Siz de kendi gen koordinatlar?n?z? belirlemek isterseniz, Büyük Be?li ki?ilik testinin sadele?tirilmi? bir halini wisdomofpsychopaths.co.uk adresinde bulabilirsiniz.
~ Kevin Dutton
Understanding how Cas9 is able to locate specific 20-base-pair target sequences within genomes that are millions to billions of base pairs long may enable improvements to gene targeting and genome editing efforts in bacteria and other types of cells.
~ Jennifer Doudna
Consider: The human genome consists of about 3.3 billion base pairs. Since there are only four types of pair, that amounts to 0.8 gigabytes of information, or about what you can fit on a CD. With a microwave radio transmitter, you could beam that amount of information into space in a few minutes, and have it travel to anyone at light speed.
~ Seth Shostak
Your genome knows much more about your medical history than you do.
~ W. Daniel Hillis
Genes are natural resources.
~ Leroy Hood
The unspooling of the skein of the genome has effectively abolished racism and creationism, and the amazing findings of Hubble and Hawking have allowed us to guess at the origins of the cosmos. But how much more addictive is the familiar old garbage about tribe and nation and faith.
~ Christopher Hitchens
This was the first time anyone suggested the genome was an information store measurable in bits. Shannon's guess was conservative, by at least four orders of magnitude.
~ James Gleick
I'm looking for all the things that are beneficial in the human genome. Everything that I do is based on a very simple principle: things that are beneficial will spread through populations very quickly.
~ Pardis Sabeti
Anybody that thought the genome was going to directly provide drugs was a fool. Biological networks are not simple, and making drugs to affect them won't be simple.
~ Leroy Hood
Onions, wheat and amoebae have more genes and more DNA than we do. Amphibians such as frogs and salamanders have genome sizes that range over two orders of magnitude, with some salamander genomes being 40 times larger than our own, and some frogs being less than a third of our size. If
~ Nick Lane
In all probability the Human Genome Project will, someday, find that I carry some recessive gene for optimism, because despite all my best efforts I still can't scrape together even a couple days of hopelessness. Future scientists will call it the Pollyanna Syndrome, and if forced to guess, I'd say that mine has been a way-long case history of chasing rainbows.
~ Chuck Palahniuk
We have 200 trillion cells, and the outcome of each of them is almost 100 percent genetically determined. And that's what our experiment with the first synthetic genome proves, at least in the case of really simple bacteria. It's the interactions of all those separate genetic units that give us the physiology that we see.
~ Craig Venter
Medicine will be personalized and preventive: Your genome might predict that you have an 80 percent chance of breast cancer by the time you are 50, but if you take a preventive drug starting when you are 40, the chance will drop to 2 percent.
~ Leroy Hood
Human experience depends on everything that can influence states of the human brain, ranging from changes in our genome to changes in the global economy.
~ Sam Harris
I would only once have the opportunity to let my scientific career encompass a path from the double helix to the three billion steps of the human genome.
~ James D. Watson
The overall view of the human genome project has been one of great excitement and positive press, but there are people who have concerns that are quite reasonable, and they are frightened of things they don't understand.
~ Thomas R. Cech
Because evolution isn't directed. It's not streamlined. We're an attic stuffed with everything our ancestors found useful, even if it stopped being useful thousands of years ago. Unless it makes you have fewer babies, it hangs around in the genome. Being out of control of your rational priorities certainly increases the number of babies you'll make.
~ Cory Doctorow
four bases in DNA: adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine, now commonly known by the letters A, T, G, and C.
~ Walter Isaacson
For his doctorate, he went to the University of Pennsylvania, where he figured out how non-coding regions of our genome, previously described as "junk DNA," could play a role in disease progression.
~ Walter Isaacson
Evolution has been working toward optimizing the human genome for 3.85 billion years," says NIH director Francis Collins, who is not an atheist. "Do we really think that some small group of human genome tinkerers could do better without all sorts of unintended consequences?
~ Walter Isaacson
He named these "CRISPR-associated," or Cas, enzymes.
~ Walter Isaacson
the sequence of letters in the DNA did not reveal how it worked; what was important was
~ Walter Isaacson
The human genome . . . the human soul . . . distrusts homogeneity, Raul. It – they – are always ready to take a chance, to risk change and diversity.
~ Dan Simmons
Il genoma umano, l'anima umana, diffida dell'omogeneità, Raul. È sempre pronto a cogliere al volo l'occasione, a correre il rischio del cambiamento e della diversità.
~ Dan Simmons
