leaving a message on the Junk DNA

Featured Replies

We have 20 amino acids…

Each of them can be written with ONE letter:

 

A=Alanine

B=…

C=Cysteine

D=Aspartic acid

E=Glutamic acid

F=Phenylalanine

G=Glycine

H=Histidine

I=Isoleucine

J=…

K=Lycine

L=Leucine

M=Methionine

N=Asparagine

O=…

P=Proline

Q=Glutamine

R=Arginine

S=Serine

T=Threonine

U=…

V=Valine

W=Tryptophane

X=…

Y=Tyrosine

Z=…

 

B, J, O, U, X, Z are the 6 letters from the English alphabet which are not been used…

 

We can add this 6 letters to 6 amino acids:

A/B =Alanine

I/J =Isoleucine

N/O =Asparagine

U/V =Valine

W/X =Tryptophane

Y/Z =Tyrosine

 

Now we can write a message-Letter with amino acids…

We can translate it in DNA code…

We can copy it 22 times in each chromosome where the “junk DNA” is…

 

So, we can leave a message to our descendants on the DNA !!!

 

After generations you can track the copies of this message and see if it is readable !!!
