Synthetic Cell


The last week, a group of scientists make for first time in history a cell which are controllated by a complete synthetic genoma, this genoma was design, synthesis and assembly in J. Craig Venter laboratory's , this group was the same in decrypts the genome code, and now they create a whole new genoma with 1.08 Mpb (1.08 million of pair bases), this genoma give to the new cells a defined phenotypic and are capable of continuous self-duplication.

This genoma was created using a chemical synthesis of four nucleotides of DNA sequences and then this pieces was assembly to created a new code to be transplanted to a cell recipient, who was complete controlled by this DNA.

The potential of this technology is huge, because now we can design a cell which we need , and the cell type that fail in some disease, like a neuron, a hepatocyte, muscle or any other that we want.

in the name of the Father

I believe in the human nature but , we are animals and we must have some animals behavior too,
so i think that kind of doctrine from the religions (catholic religion), where the sex is forbidden, have a anti-nature behavior, and the people like priest, are in constant fight with him instincts, and someones, in one point, they make a twist on his ethic and moral values, so psychologically they become a perverse people, who never have the chance for their subconscious development and be a complete mental healthy human being. the case of pederast priest, is a old well know history, this kind of people were present always in past time, but now the power of the catholic religion is not the same of a few years ago, and that is the reason because we hear a lots of news of violated children by priests, now the victim family have the courage and reported the abuse.

NATURE.com


NATURE.com

This is a Nature magazine web site, this magazine have different topics of science, e.g. Chemistry , biotechnology, biochemistry, earth sciences , ecology, immunology, microbiology, neurosciences and more. Nature is a important and prestigious sciences magazine, so all published works in this magazine have a high impact in the scientist field, then is so much difficult appear in this magazine. I use this web site because it have a large date base of works from whole world and I can search them by specific subject, like neuroscience. Other thing is the great pictures of the covers of nature magazine and the links to other specific magazine and a date base of jobs recruitment. This magazine also have a lots of articles about current issues and if I want , I can receiver by e-mail the alerts about a topic of my interest
