Chapter 53: Remarkable Genetic Stability
???“ Who's to say it's not! It's all carbon-based life, and even the degree of genetic modification is about the same as that of the second-class civilians in our empire.
You see, if it weren't for the obvious difference between these ten or so places, I would have thought that someone was pretending to be an alien and trying to deceive the identity of a first-class citizen!"
They were very nervous when they didn't see these gene charts before, afraid that something unknown would happen, and they were afraid that they would be embarrassed if they didn't understand the genes over there.
But I didn't expect that the genes of those aliens were so similar to those on my side. It's easy to find out the difference between just a dozen places, so there's nothing to worry about.
"It's really a joy in vain, it seems that these aliens don't help us much, there is no need to be so wary of them!" the other experts also relaxed after reading it.
However, at this time, Dean Hiro of the Genomics Research Institute suddenly picked out one of the pile of genetic sorting tables and said, "You guys are too careful, this one is obviously different from everyone else's. He is the only one who has not been genetically modified. ”
After listening to it, the other researchers also pulled out the table, looked at it carefully, and found that it was true.
"His genes are relatively primitive, but there are almost no major problems, some small problems do not need to be repaired with genetic improvement drugs at all, except for the longevity problem, everything else is very good, and the most important thing is that his gene chain is very stable. "After being reminded of it, it's easy for these experts to identify the most critical issues.
After all, no matter what they say, they are all people who have been immersed in this profession for dozens or hundreds of years, and this problem is still easy to see.
After the expert said that the gene chain was very stable, all the dean experts present began to look attentively, not like before, just casually glanced, and the initial carelessness no longer appeared.
After a long while, Dean Hiro sighed and put down the form in his hand: "I have never seen such a perfect primitive gene, I think back then, even if it was an excellent gene, there were more or less some shortcomings, or hidden or dominant defects.
However, his genes, there are no recessive problems in his genes, let alone dominant problems, if they can be combined with genes of the same level as him, their offspring theoretically will not have any congenital genetic diseases, and even the probability of dying will be greatly increased.
We may be able to explore the reason for the stability of his genes from the structure of his gene chain!"
After he said these words, the other experts had basically finished reading them, and their thoughts were different. But there is no doubt that everyone here is very satisfied with the stability of this alien's genetic chain.
Before, even before they had a genetic refinement program, the gene chain of the primitive genes of their civilization was not very stable. It is precisely because of the instability of the gene chain that various strange diseases are particularly prone to appear, and the probability of various congenital genetic diseases is also very high.
On the one hand, it is to modify some genes that cause congenital diseases, especially dominant genes, recessive genetic modification requires too many resources and needs to be specially customized by the research institute, and on the other hand, it is to stabilize the gene chain.
Obviously, the gene improvement agent does this, but the gene improvement drug does not directly stabilize the gene chain, but only a relatively stable gene chain. And it's not once and for all, he can only stabilize a person's genetic chain, and there is no way to be responsible for his offspring.
But now, but now this alien, this alien who has not been modified by any genetic agent, the genetic chain itself is very stable, far more stable than they knew before.
This is undoubtedly a great help to them, although it is not directly helpful, but by observing the most stable gene chains found so far, it will definitely be able to greatly promote their production of stable gene chain medicines.
Although they were very happy with this discovery, it was not to the point of ecstasy, they also had to test, and also to test whether the stability of this gene chain has a genetic effect, that is, whether this stable gene chain can be inherited!
"Dean, we may need to study it, we must have extracted some genetic tissue from them during the previous examination. Torostai, the chief researcher at the Institute of Genomics, was already in a hurry.
The attitude of these researchers towards scientific research may be more pure than that of those deans and academicians, and they do not have as many things to think about and worry about.
After receiving an affirmative reply from there, Torostai hurriedly entered his laboratory and asked for Li Nan's genes for experiments.
Because the observation of genes has been carried out before, this time they will directly carry out genetic experiments, of course, they do not have the time to make embryos, just simple gene replication inheritance.
In this way, the speed will be much faster, if you make embryos, you need to make more than ten or twenty in a row, it is possible to draw conclusions, but if you directly carry out gene replication genetic experiments, in a petri dish replication experiments, the speed will be much faster, and you can basically draw a preliminary conclusion in a few hours.
Fortunately, if the embryo is really made, Li Nan will have a few more unconsciously, I don't know if it is a son or a brother.
Not only one researcher is researching, but many researchers are working at the same time, but their research directions are different.
Because the genes of these aliens are not much different from those of the people on the side of the Tunguska Empire, the monitoring of them on the research institute has also been relaxed a lot, basically as long as they don't leave the research institute.
Li Nan stayed in the bedroom and didn't go out, which didn't make people feel strange, because most of those people didn't go out, and only a few were out of curiosity.
But what can there be to visit in the research institute, the places inside are either unknown equipment, or laboratories that cannot be entered.
They all went back after two laps, and for them, the attraction was not as great as the light brain in the bedroom.
Li Nan also took some time to attend the fourth class for a while, and only came back after school.
