Chapter 198: Cell-on-a-chip
Inside a petri dish, a small mass of translucent, slightly pale green cell tissue was trembling incessantly.
That's right, it's trembling, it's a trembling that's visible to the naked eye.
"It's amazing." Lin Sha approached the petri dish curiously, and found that the cells and tissues inside trembled even more.
Fang Ge thought for a moment and guessed, "It may be that our brain waves are affecting it." ”
Jiang Tiansheng, who was excited, nodded:
"It's true that our brain waves are influencing, which proves that cancer cells have been successfully endowed with brainwave sensing protein components, but now we don't have a filter to receive brain waves in a directed direction."
Fang Ge was very happy, although the cells and tissues in the petri dish were like newborns, but this represented a new stage in the research and development work, and then she smiled and said:
"Step by step, we have now taken a crucial step towards success."
"Xiaoge has a point." After Lin Sha and Fang Ge got acquainted, they didn't have the same sense of distance as before.
What's more, Fang Ge's level is really okay, not only is his idea wild, but his biochemical foundation is very solid.
Sure enough, things are like and people are grouped, and being able to be a student of Academician Huang is extraordinary.
After the breakthrough in the brainwave sensing protein component, Fang Ge decided to divide the army into two ways, Jiang Tiansheng was responsible for continuing to improve the brainwave sensing protein component, while she, Lin Sha, and Wen Kehan attacked the second component, the brainwave feedback protein component.
With the sensing component, brain waves can be received; And with the feedback part, the brain waves can be released.
Both are indispensable, which means that the USB flash drive must be able to store information, and it must also be able to read information.
With the experience of developing brainwave sensing protein components, Lin Sha, Fang Ge, and Wen Kehan drew gourds with a scoop.
Using cancer cells as the base, injecting brainwave feedback hormone and X serum, a set of most suitable brainwave feedback protein components was developed in less than two days.
And then there is the general direction that those international peers are doing, protein logic gate transistors, and protein logic device LSI integrated by protein logic gates. Seven or eight Chinese fastest ^ mobile terminal:://
The basic input of the protein circuit is controlled by CIPHR synergistically induced protein heterodimers.
CIPHR is an aggregate of two different proteins, each corresponding to an input at a specific location, and different combinations are equivalent to 1 at different positions in the circuit.
THE PORTABILITY OF CIPHR'S LOGIC GATES ALSO MEANS THAT WE CAN USE LOGIC GATES TO CONTROL DIFFERENT BIOLOGICAL FUNCTIONS.
Fang Ge and Lin Sha designed four pairs of heterodimer modules and constructed two logic gates with different control functions.
Using cancer cells as the basic framework, a protein is embedded in the corresponding nanosite, and then injected into X serum as fusion coordination, and the logic gate is tested by in vitro translation and monitoring luminescence.
If heterodimers are used, inhibition 0 is produced as soon as 1 is entered, which is equivalent to NAND gates.
If protein monomers are used, as long as any one of the proteins enters 1, the original TALE-KRAB binding will be disrupted, and the inhibition of 1 will be canceled, thus realizing the function of OR gate.
NAND and OR are used to control the expression of TIM3 proteins, which are detected by flow cytometry.
The above is just a case for two inputs, and it is similar if you increase the input to 3, but with more dimers used, more proteins are used inside the logic gate.
The test results showed that the protein logic gate could accept their control, but because the brainwave feedback and sensing parts were not assembled, the protein logic gate was slow to control and relatively unresponsive.
However, this problem can be quickly controlled by assembling the brainwave sensing and feedback components into the cancer cells.
Fang Ge looked at the protein logic gate that had been successful, and immediately said, "We need to build the first logician, the filter logician. ”
"I agree."
The research and development work has been advanced by leaps and bounds, and in just one month, the biological computer laboratory will successively complete the brainwave sensing components, brainwave feedback components, filters, memory, and central processing units.
The first set of original biochips was successfully constructed.
Inside the petri dish, the previously translucent cell tissue has now taken on a sunny green color, like a piece of crystal clear jade, or jelly is more appropriate.
In the tissue, each cell is equivalent to a chip, and these cells do not exert their real power.
Because the core logic of their core CPU, they can't be combined in parallel.
Wen Kehan wrote a set of simple kernel programs for the core logics in these cells, which are mainly used to test the floating-point computing power of these cell chips.
As for whether it is necessary to write a real biological computer kernel operating system, there is no need for this.
Why do you say that
Is there any operating system that is more powerful and comprehensive than the human brain, at most it has some built-in helpers and permission control programs?
Wen Kehan took a few auxiliary employees and put 20 petri dishes into the floating-point test machine one by one.
This machine is also specially ordered from Shenguang Instruments, and it can accurately calculate the floating point arithmetic power through brain waves.
Wen Kehan, who was wearing goggles, looked at his watch, and then ordered, "Start the test." ”
The assistant staff pushes the petri dish into the brainwave exchange box, and the floating-point arithmetic test is initiated.
Looking at the numbers that were beating wildly, Wen Kehan did not expect that the computing power of the cell chip would be very strong, but he did not expect it to be so strong.
The floating-point computing power of 4669~5341 trillion trillion per second is more than three times more powerful than the current large-scale supercomputing.
At present, the strongest supercomputer is the Shenguang Instrument of Shenguang - Jupiter's large-scale supercomputer, which can reach 1,500 megalogs per second.
The problem is that the cell chips in the petri dish have not yet entered the stage of parallel combination, and the speed tested is only the computing power of a single cell chip, so there are obvious fluctuations in computing power.
If the coin-sized cells in the petri dish are all used to calculate their power, they are then side by side.
Just think about it, and you can see how much computing power is hidden in it.
"This is the future of humanity." Wen Kehan handed the report to the others.
After reading the report, Fang Ge, Lin Sha, Jiang Tiansheng and others were also shocked by the powerful computing power of the cell chip.
It's so powerful that a single cell chip is equivalent to three divine lights—Jupiter supercomputing, a coin-sized cell tissue containing hundreds of millions of cells.
"In terms of juxtaposition framework, we need a team of professional computer programmers to build a complete juxtaposition computing framework program." Wen Kehan reminded.
After all, he is not a professional programmer, and writing a program alone is not only slow, but also more prone to vulnerabilities.
Fang Ge also knew that Wen Kehan couldn't handle it alone, so he nodded and replied, "I will ask Director Wang for a programmer to come and support." ”
With the successful development of cell chips, the next step is to enter a new phase of building a biological computer.
Wang Shengqiang looked at the report in his hand and realized that the biological computer laboratory, which had been established for more than two months, had made breakthroughs.
He immediately contacted Huang Mingzhe to report the incident.
Huang Mingzhe, who is in Lingnan, although he was surprised by Fang Ge's speed, still sent a group of programming experts from the Computer Programming Research Institute, the Academy of Sciences, and the Academy of Engineering of the Thinking Society to support.
