Chapter 625: Genetic Technology Soars Forward
"Offense is the best defense, and now the coastal cities are facing the threat of star beasts, and only taking the initiative is the best way to solve the human crisis."
At the Planetary Defense Conference, the White Eagle delegation always insisted on attacking the Deep Wind Rift Valley.
In the previous 10-day meeting, Donghai did not explicitly oppose it, but this time it officially opposed the attack on the Deep Wind Rift Valley.
"We believe that attacking the Deep Wind Rift Valley is a difficult and low-return strategy, and there is no need to continue the discussion."
"Do you know how many coastal cities around the world are being attacked by star beasts? In this case, you still have to oppose the offensive plan, what is your purpose in the East China Sea? The White Eagle representative asked loudly.
"We don't have any purpose, it's just that we don't recommend spending a lot of military power on a very low-benefit thing, as for the Star Beast Civilization, we have a more stable and effective way to attack, and we don't need to risk attacking." The attitude of the Donghai deputies was very tough.
After today's meeting on planetary defense.
Delegations left the venue one after another.
The White Eagle delegation was puzzled by the sudden change in the attitude of the Tokai representatives.
After returning to your hotel.
Lucius, another head of the White Eagle delegation, ordered: "What is the matter with the representatives of the East China Sea? A few days ago, I didn't object, but today I suddenly objected, check and see what the reason is. ”
"Not long ago, Donghai proposed a plan to destroy the Star Beast Civilization, called 'Extermination ****. Genetic technology is used, but the required genetic technology level is 1.5. A member of the delegation in charge of intelligence brought up the information he received the other day.
"Do you think it is possible for this kind of technologically backward country to master level 1.5 genetic technology?" Lucius snorted coldly, his face full of contempt.
At this time.
Strong walked into the room, poured a glass of whiskey, picked it up and said, "You guessed it wrong, Donghai does have the hope of mastering level 1.5 genetic technology. ”
"What information have you received?" Lucius immediately asked.
"According to the information just received, a large number of genetic sequence studies are being carried out in the Eastern Naval Academy of Sciences, and the research progress is very fast, abnormally fast." Strong replied.
Lucius frowned at him and asked, "Where did you get the information?" ”
"You don't have to worry about this, the intelligence is accurate, this can be guaranteed." Strong affirmed.
"What other information has been found? What exactly does the Eastern Naval Academy of Sciences study? Lucius asked.
"It's not uncertain at the moment, but we know that a lot of genetic sequencing research is going on in the East China Sea, and the number of experiments in this month is more than in the past ten years." Strong replied.
A White Eagle intelligence officer spoke up: "According to this information, Donghai may have mastered some kind of special ability, which should be related to genetic technology." ”
This conclusion is not difficult to analyze.
From the perspective of current human civilization, all technological leaps are inseparable from abilities.
It can be said that in human civilization, all the technologies that skip levels are achieved through abilities.
Otherwise, according to the speed of scientific and technological progress of mankind, it will take at least 500 years to reach the level of 1.5 science and technology.
"Go and find out, what abilities have been discovered by the Eastern Naval Academy of Sciences, and who this person who has mastered the abilities is, find out clearly." Lucius ordered.
……
The Alienation Gene Research Group of the East Naval Academy of Sciences is indeed doing a huge amount of genetic sequence research.
Due to the existence of Zhao Xiaohui's "base scalpel", the Academy of Military Sciences can modify the genetic material of the organism into any desired DNA code.
Of course, trying to modify the DNA sequence cell by cell is very time-consuming.
Moreover, Zhao Xiaohui had not systematically studied gene knowledge before, so the Alienation Gene Research Group needed to give her a make-up lesson so that she could understand the principle of gene expression.
After mastering the "base scalpel", Zhao Xiaohui is like a DNA program ape, which can modify the DNA of cells into any shape according to his own wishes.
After careful research.
Lu Xiuwen's team basically confirmed the specific effect of the "base scalpel".
This ability allows for the clicing of DNA codes in biological genes.
This is done by cutting off the bases and fitting them into the desired DNA sequence.
For example, there is a piece of AATCCG code in the gene, and the Academy of Military Sciences needs a piece of ATTCCG code.
Then modify the second "A", which is adenine, to "T" thymine.
However, Zhao Xiaohui's "base scalpel" does not have the ability to make something out of nothing, so it can only cut A and throw it away, and then cut a "T" thymine from other places and install it in its original position.
In this case, another problem arises.
If you cut a "T" thymine from somewhere else, wouldn't that destroy that piece of DNA code?
In this case, wouldn't the creature have a genetic mutation?
This is a real possibility.
However, this possibility can be completely avoided.
Because only 1.5% of the human genome is responsible for the protein-coding sequence, the remaining 98.5% of the sequences may be useless genes.
In other words, all human proteins only need to be encoded with 1.5% of the genes in the genome, and the remaining 98.5% of the gene sequences are not used to code for proteins.
In other words, as long as you know that those genes are "useless" genes, you can cut off the bases in the "useless" genes and install them where they are needed.
Zhao Xiaohui is like a programmed ape, according to the requirements of the Academy of Military Sciences, compiling a paragraph of DNA code of unknown significance.
Yes, she didn't know what the DNA codes were for.
The role of these DNA codes is not something that can be understood in a short period of time.
These DNA codes were researched by the Academy of Military Sciences with manpower and material resources, and then verified one by one through the "base scalpel".
After Zhao Xiaohui writes the DNA code, it will be handed over to the Academy of Military Sciences, which will conduct experiments to test the expression effect of these genes.
After confirming the expression effect, the desired DNA fragment is finally obtained by optimizing it step by step.
While conducting research and promoting the genetic technology of human civilization, the Academy of Military Sciences also began to launch a research team for "extinction".
This group specializes in genetic weapons used to exterminate the Star Beast civilization.
If it was a month ago, "extinction **** was still out of reach, but now with the "base scalpel", the DNA of living beings can be cut into any desired shape, as long as the right genetic weapon is researched, I feel that there is hope to complete the "extinction ****."
The only thing to worry about is Zhao Xiaohui's identity as an alienated person, once the secret on her body is known by the alienated person, or the star beast civilization, it will definitely cause a turmoil.
