Homolog.us Blog Congratulates ENCODE's Stamatoyannopoulos for Rediscovering
Stamatoyannopoulos made another breakthrough discovery !! At this rate, he will figure out Darwin’s theory of evolution by the end of next year.
We have to bring back the old video that will be exclusively reserved for him from now on.
For those not yet familiar with the current claim, following two press releases would suffice.
Second Code Uncovered Inside the DNA
A research team at the University of Washington has discovered a second code hidden within the DNA, written on top of the other.
Now we know that this basic assumption about reading the human genome missed half of the picture, said team leader Dr. John Stamatoyannopoulos.
Whereas the first code describes how proteins are made, this second language instructs the cell on how genes are to be controlled.
Don’t Be Duped By “Duon” DNA Hype
With todays headlines hyping Second Code Uncovered Inside the DNA, you might think that scientists are running around in circles in their labs, tearing out their hair, and screaming, Crick, you loser! But the real reaction of scientists to these headlines is more along the lines of this Twitter conversation among several scientific experts and science writers. They have good reason to be snarky.
