Chapter 15: Synthesis

Broadway, the mecca of American musical and dance theater.

Theaters dot the streets, illuminated by colourful lights.

In the most famous Broadway theater, the classic musical "Les Miserables" is being played at this time, and in the audience below, near the back of the seat, a young Asian man is sitting in a seat, quietly watching the performance on the stage.

Sitting next to him was also an Asian man, dressed in a dark suit, with an angular face and a muscular body, looking like a bodyguard or something.

These two people are naturally Bei Yang and Dayong.

Bei Yang came here to accept the influence of art, but he found that art can only be used for him to pretend/force, not to enjoy.

After saying goodbye to Bill that day, Bei Yang came to the United States with Jack, and in the face of a powerful money offensive, visas, green cards and so on are extremely simple things.

As soon as he returned to the United States, Jack went to a venture capital firm with a blood orchid.

With the miraculous effects of the blood orchid, Jack soon attracted a large amount of investment, hired many relevant experts, and established a top laboratory in the industry.

With these relevant experts to conduct research, Bei Yang will naturally not participate in it anymore, and in terms of biology, he is still not as good as these experts.

After watching it for a long time, and feeling that he couldn't enjoy it, Bei Yang quietly got up and left the theater, and Dayong also quickly got up and followed closely behind Bei Yang.

As soon as Bei Yang left the gate of the theater, a car happened to stop on the side of the road, and Dayong stepped forward and helped him open the door.

After Bei Yang sat in the car, Dayong sat directly in the passenger seat.

Glancing at Jack in the driver's seat, Bei Yang asked. "Jack, how is the research on the blood orchid, is there any progress?"

"Master, the research of the blood orchid has encountered difficulties."

Because there was no one else in the car, Jack didn't need to hide it anymore, and directly called Bei Yang's master.

"Huh?" Bei Yang frowned slightly, "What's the matter?" Didn't you tell me some time ago that the research on blood orchids has made great progress? ”

"Master, we have extracted the active ingredients in the Blood Orchid before, but we only know that under the stimulation of these ingredients, the cells will undergo benign mutations, but we can't study the mechanism of action of these ingredients at all." There was some helplessness in Jack's words.

If the active ingredient is extracted simply for the medicinal use of the blood orchid, it can already be mass-produced research.

But Bei Yang asked Jack to set up this laboratory, not only to use the blood orchid medicinally, but to study the mechanism of action of the blood orchid components, and to know how the blood orchid can cause benign mutations in cells.

Bei Yang thought for a moment and asked, "Have you analyzed the active ingredients of the Blood Orchid?" ”

Jack nodded: "Master, we have analyzed the active ingredient of the blood orchid, mainly a protein with a particularly complex structure, this is a structure that we have never seen before, we have tried to synthesize it several times, but in the end we have failed." ”

"At the level of the laboratory, it is not that difficult to synthesize proteins, how can it fail?"

You must know that in the sixties and seventies, it was already possible to synthesize proteins artificially, although it was only the simplest protein, but after so many years of technological development, it was not difficult for a top laboratory to synthesize proteins.

Jack's face showed a slightly strange look: "Master, the structure of this protein is unreasonable, we can synthesize a protein with this structure, but then it will collapse, and there is no way to maintain stability at all." ”

"Can't keep the structure of a synthetic protein stable? But the extract of the blood orchid contains this protein, what is the difference between the two? Hearing Jack's words, Bei Yang frowned and lowered his head to remember.

Soon, Bei Yang thought of a little, and his face showed a little excitement: "Jack, let's go to the laboratory right now." ”

Hearing this, Jack immediately slapped the steering wheel and drove in the direction of the laboratory.

Soon, Bei Yang and the others came to the laboratory, and at this time, there were many experimenters in white coats in the laboratory, who were conducting relevant experiments, observing and recording various data.

"Jack, are there any proteins being synthesized in the lab?"

"Yes, we're trying to synthesize every day!"

While talking, Jack led Bei Yang to a huge instrument, and through the huge transparent cover, he could see that there were multiple test tubes inside, and these test tubes contained transparent liquids, and the transparent liquid was full of polypeptide chains that were invisible to the naked eye.

The formation of polypeptide chain is the early step in the synthesis of protein, if you make an analogy, polypeptide chain is a colored rope, protein is colored rope weaving, synthesis of protein, is to weave polypeptide chain into a special structure, the formation of protein.

Jack: They had failed to synthesize proteins at this time.

"Jack, you bring me a copy of the red orchid extract, and by the way, bring a piece of water!" Bei Yang commanded.

"Okay." Jack answered and turned to leave.

It didn't take long for Jack to come over with a test tube and a beaker, which contained a reddish transparent liquid from the blood orchid, and a beaker with water.

Bei Yang took the water in Jack's hand, put it on the experimental table on the side, took out an eye-opening talisman, shook it casually, burned it and put it into the water, and then took out the willow leaves stored in the watch space, dipped them in the talisman water, and pasted them on his eyes.

Then, Bei Yang's eyes opened and looked at the test tube containing the blood orchid extract.

In Bei Yang's eyes, in the originally reddish transparent liquid, a large amount of black gas was gathered at this time, black as ink, thick as juice.

"Sure enough!" A gleam flashed in Bei Yang's eyes, "The reason why the Blood Orchid can maintain that protein structure is because it has special energy support, the Blood Orchid can promote the advancement of the Iron Armored Corpse, and the energy contained in it is also as I expected, it is Yin Qi." ”

Seeing the expression on Bei Yang's face, Jack asked in a low voice, "Master, did you find anything?" ”

"Jack, give me some of those tubes that hold peptide chains!" Bei Yang didn't answer his words, and said directly.

"Hmm!" Jack nodded, and hurriedly asked people to open the instrument, took out a few test tubes from it, and handed them to Beiyang.

Bei Yang took a few test tubes, took out a few Yin Gathering Talismans, wrapped them all, and then handed them to Jack: "Keep them safe, always pay attention to them, and if there is any change, notify me at any time." ”
