Hi @fighton, thank you for taking time to comment, you are completely right about gene drive. In this article I only talk about the natural occurrences and mechanisms of homing endonuclease, that's what

Hi @kilbride, that's a very good question. I did not find any study on the question, but my guess is that these elements are generally integrated in non-coding regions of the genome or in gene introns,

Good and complete introduction for beginners, keep up the good work :)

Sure, but i would assume that the extraction process consumes a lot of energy, doesn't it?

Same for your work :) i'd be happy to have feedback from you

Very good article Dave! Probabilities and statistics are indeed highly nonintuitive, i think that's part of the problem when it comes to communicating scientific data to the public. The Monty Hall problem

Hi @tking77798, thank you for this article! I was thinking of posting on the subject but you summed up everything perfectly. I had the chance to meet some of the people who worked on Golden Rice and this

Bonjour @francostem, merci pour cet article. Je poste actuellement en anglais et je réfléchis à les traduire en français (ma langue natale), est-ce une pratique encouragée par la communauté ou est-il

Cool article, nice way to use a fun topic to introduce some education :) Not sure what the benefit/harm ratio is for the plants with that much ammonia though, it's probably better to use it in small

Thank you for the pictures, i did not have the courage to wake up at 5 AM to see it from San Francisco :)

Hi @illuminatus, thank you for this piece. Do you know if there is any chance for these processes to have a positive energetic yield in the future ?

Thanks for support, i'm glad you liked it! Totally agree, their emotional dependance is even more obvious when you compare it to the interactions in a wolf pack. I would not have imagined that there was

Glad you liked it :)

Yes i remembered reading the first paper in 2014 where they just show replication of the plasmid and it was already impressive. I found out about the second one while writing the article and it blew my

Yes! Just the fact that replication and transcription of unnatural bases can occur without any modification to polymerases is already amazing, especially considering that the bases they use interact mostly

Hey, great article, I didn't know some of these :) Keep up the good work!

Beautiful pictures! :)

Great article, well detailed and well sourced. Definitely an interesting read :)

Interesting to have your own conception of your work and how it reflects on your everyday life. Do you think it also changes the way people interact with you? (because of the fear of "diagnostic"

True, but it's also very interesting to see how genetic similarities could have completely different effects and implications from one species to another :)
