Chapter 331: Gene Editing Technology
Gene editing technology is a major breakthrough in genetics, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the "hand of God", because it means that human beings can modify, edit or modify any gene directly at the molecular level, not just in the embryonic cells of living organisms.
Windmill doesn't understand genetics, but he doesn't rule out his admiration for gene-editing technology. According to his understanding as a hacker, gene editing is similar to the source code he wrote, which can be deleted or inserted into the DNA code at will, so as to achieve specific functional purposes, such as correcting the mutated disease gene back to the normal state, so that the hereditary disease can be cured, which is gene therapy in clinical medicine.
For example, other powerful animal genes can be inserted into the human body, which is the origin of the genetic samurai.
To this day, the Genetic Samurai has remained a secret to ordinary people, as it violates international conventions, as well as the ethics of technology that most people can accept, and is easily reminiscent of the end of the world, such as Xenomorph or X-Men.
Technology does not matter whether it is good or evil, it is used for good and good, and evil is evil when it is used, such as poison and nuclear energy. The application of gene editing technology has also been polarized in two completely different fields, medicine and the military.
One saves people, the other kills.
Jin Yutang's major is also medicine, so he naturally has some understanding of gene editing technology, and asked curiously: "Brother Ling, how far has your gene editing technology progressed?" โ
"To be precise, our Ten Thousand Beasts Phylum is not called gene editing technology, but gene-directed interference."
Let Guangyu carefully use the words so that everyone can understand them. "The method of directional interference, Qingzhu and Xizhou should be more understandable, similar to the Gu cultivation techniques of your Five Poison Sects. Technically, it is to accelerate the evolution of species with drastic changes in the living environment, including lasers, X-rays, chemical drugs, etc., and simulate millions of years of long evolution in a matter of decades.
"In this process, the target organism produces various genetic mutations. All we do is to intervene in the direction of the gene mutation by changing the environment at the right time to get the desired result......"
Yun Kai seconds understood, because this is how the bracelet appeared.
The bracelet also understood, and seemed to recall some unpleasant experiences, grabbing a handful of peanut beans viciously, and smashing it into Ling Guangyu's head!
The handsome guy was inexplicable, waved his hand to catch the peanut beans one by one, threw one in his mouth and asked, "What do you want to do with the bracelet?" โ
"Cousin, I'm going to accuse you of human rights violations, oh no, bird rights!" The bracelet solemnly declared: "You have the right to remain silent now, but everything you say will be a testimony ...... court."
Guangyu and his friends were stunned. The windmill pinched the bracelet's mouth and asked, "The bracelet, if they also give birth to a wise parrot, or a sexy and beautiful girl, how would you be swollen?" โ
"Yes, of course...... Create a race of wise parrots first! โ
The bracelet smiled and threw the bird body experiment out of the clouds, and both small eyes narrowed into a slit. "Thousands of years later, when my parrot clan becomes strong, I will immediately kill you human beings, conquer the world, and dominate the world!"
"Why don't you go to heaven?"
"Of course we have to go to the sky, our journey is the stars and the sea......"
"Poofโ"
Everyone burst into laughter. Fortunately, no one else noticed that in a corner of the bar terrace, there was an inhuman intelligent creature clamoring to defend the rights of birds and rush into outer space.
Laughing enough, Ling Guangyu shook his head and sighed: "The genetic technology of the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate can't solve the genetic problem of intelligence, and the results of countless experiments seem to prove only one thing, wisdom belongs to the realm of God." The bracelet should be a one-in-a-million exception, and there is no possibility of copying it at all......"
A one-of-a-kind bracelet with a brow and a saglent eyebrow to indicate emptiness, loneliness and coldness.
Ling Guangyu continued: "The genetic technology of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect cannot make genetic warriors, but I am confident that the value in medicine will not be lost to them. We have a white rat valley and a fish dragon lake within a radius of dozens of miles, where many genetically mutated organisms have been cultivated, and now we can refine insulin, hepatitis antigens and tumor drugs, etc., and the technology is fully mature.
"Moreover, our genetic test is not a transplanted foreign gene, but an endogenous gene evolved by the animal itself, which will not cause antibody and immune responses, and there is no hidden danger of transgenic. You can understand that these animals grow naturally in a variety of different environments, but from the future millions of years from now......"
It has to be said that the gene interference technology of the Ten Thousand Beasts has opened up another way of thinking about the gene editing model. Western medicine is good at micro operation, and Chinese medicine is good at macro conditioning, and this difference is also in the same vein in gene technology.
Yan Xiaoyi didn't care about the white mouse or the black mouse, he only knew that the one who could make money was a good mouse, and shouted excitedly: "Then what else to say?" Hurry up and bring out those fish and mice, let's raise millions of them, and sell genetic Chinese medicine to the world! โ
"Well, there's still a bit of a problem for the time being."
"Shenma problem?"
"A while ago, there was something wrong in the sect. The reason why Yixiang and I came to Chongqing was because several elders in the door had disagreements on the direction of genetic technology, and it was inconvenient for our two juniors to participate, so we were kicked out by the second uncle on the grounds of fulfilling the gambling contract. โ
Yunkai was a participant in the gambling contract and asked suspiciously, "What the hell is going on?" โ
Ling Guangyu hesitated for a moment and explained: "The Jonathan laboratory in the United States is the most influential genetic engineering research center in the world, sending millions of mice to the outside every year with various cancers, cardiovascular diseases, immune syndromes and other human diseases for researchers in different countries and regions to experiment.
"The person in charge of this laboratory came to my third uncle half a year ago and said that they planned to invest billions of meters of gold in Jincheng to establish the world's largest genomic medicine research base.
"The investment of billions of meters of gold is not a small amount for a city like Jincheng, and it happens to be within the jurisdiction of the third uncle, so the third uncle agreed, and also suggested that the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate cooperate with Jonathan's laboratory to jointly establish this research base......
"Conspiracy, there must be a conspiracy!"
Yunkai treated others with himself, suspecting that the free lunch must not be delicious, Yan Xiaoyi also nodded in agreement.
"So, my father and second uncle don't approve of it." Ling Guangyu replied: "The other party invests, the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate doesn't have so much money, and if you don't invest, you have to come up with technology, otherwise why cooperate with the other party?" โ
"And now?"
"Because of this, several elders in the family almost turned their faces." Ling Guangyu smiled bitterly: "So, even if I want to take out the gene interference technology, there is no way to ...... it for the time being."
Yun Kai rolled his eyes, pondered for a moment and asked, "Your third uncle, is it Linghu Zhou who is in charge of Taihang Province?" โ
Ling Guangyu nodded. Yun Kai asked again: "Hou Yingbu, it happens to be Linghu Zhou's son-in-law?" โ
Ling Hu Zhou's face changed: "You mean, these two things may be related?!" โ
"If I'm not mistaken, it's like this."
Ling Guangyu was silent for a long time, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
Hou Yingbu was coerced into betraying Treasure Island, but fortunately it did not cause a catastrophe, otherwise the Three Strange Men would definitely have a mortal enmity with the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate. And the third uncle Linghu Zhou advocated cooperating with Jonathan's laboratory, could it be that it was not for the sake of political performance as previously speculated, but for the same motive as Hou Yingbu?
If this is the case, then the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate has been caught in a huge conspiracy!
"Looks like I'm going to have to go back right now." Ling Guangyu put down his wine glass and said, "Yunkai, are you interested in going to Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Villa as a guest?" I remember that the second uncle once invited you. โ
You say this person, it's not good to look too demonic, for example, Xiaosi has been hated by the sister paper of Quanyudu for many years; It's not good if the character is too demonic, for example, Second Brother Yan wants to soak Sun Xiaoqing and has failed so far due to historical problems; It's even worse if the IQ is too demonic, for example, he can't be idle if he wants to, and he will get into trouble anytime and anywhere-
No, trouble is coming again.
Yunkai is very busy now, he promised to accompany Queen Xia back to Xia's house, and he also went to Yanjing to find the dragon god, and besides, he can't ignore the violent girl, so there is no idle matter in charge of the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate?
"We're all juniors, so it's not easy to get involved in this." Yun Kai rolled his eyes and pondered for a while, rubbed his earlobes and said, "I have a ready-made candidate, maybe I can solve this matter......"
"Who?"
"Your sister!"
"Your sister ......" made Guangyu think he was scolding him, and only after half of the words did he react and say: "You mean Yixiang?" โ
"Yixiang and Yunshan." Yun Kai nodded and said, "Don't forget, both of them are now members of the Special Security Group, and Dashan is still a closed disciple of the Dragon God." If nothing else, Dashan is the future leader of the special security team, and he is more qualified than any of us to deal with this matter. โ
"The people of the Ketean group are not involved in disputes in the rivers and lakes."
"You think like that, it's dark under the lights."
Yun Kai pursed his lips and replied: "That's right, the special security group is not involved in the grievances of the rivers and lakes. However, there are overseas forces that have infiltrated the dark rivers and lakes, do you think the dragon god will ignore them? You go and explain the seriousness of the situation to Yixiang, and make sure that she and Dashan will ask the dragon god for instructions, and they will be able to rush back from Siam tomorrow! โ
What's that going on? Those who work hard govern people, and those who work hard govern people. Speaking of people, there are benefits of high IQ, and playing ball is also a talent, and Yun Kai kicked the ball to Dashan in a blink of an eye.
Of course, it can't be said that he has cheated his own brothers, and it is said that Dashan can be regarded as half of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect people.
Not to mention his relationship with Ling Yixiang, let's just say that when the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate failed to rob the heirs, he came up with another trick to "save the country with curves", so that the curvy Yixiang sister paper joined the special security group, and accompanied by Dashan to "privately pass" the beast stunt, planning to cook raw rice into mature rice-
As for saying that another pot of raw rice is cooked and ripe, only Oyama himself knows. Now that the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate is in trouble, Dashan will deal with this matter as the successor of the Dragon God, which can also be regarded as an opportunity to repay the grace of the art.
Ling Guangyu breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to call his sister when he was stopped by Yunkai again.
"Brother Ling, I am a shareholder of Yunshuang Company, let's talk ugly in front. If this matter is solved perfectly, then your Ten Thousand Beast Sect's genetic interference technology must cooperate with Yunshuang Company......"
Yun Kai and Xia Hanshuang glanced at each other tacitly, and said with a half-truthful smile: "Of course, the brothers settle the accounts, and the share income is indispensable to the Ten Thousand Beasts, and the same is true for Brother Yu and Sister Qingzhu." What do you think? โ
Look, this thing is a master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles.
Ling Guangyu replied angrily: "Do I still have the right to object?" โ
