I just read your post and I think that is a little bit hilarious. I can imagine many forms and many ways to store info in a better way than coding it in DNA… like you said process like mutation or recombination (process like conjugation, transduction or transformation) will obstruct the decode of our info. Even more, due to other properties of the genome like transposons, or genome evolution this storage will be very difficult.<BR/><BR/>In my opinion we are so far away from creating a data storage that emulates DNA…Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8317659032924518627.post-78850337835930110102007-05-17T17:38:00.000-04:002007-05-17T17:38:00.000-04:00First of all, congrat for your Blog, I really enjo...First of all, congrat for your Blog, I really enjoy it.
