125 Department Headquarters, Sterile Laboratory

After several phases of infrastructure construction, the area of this scientific research base has increased a lot, and many scientific research groups have independent laboratories, and the biological laboratory responsible for dealing with monster research accounts for nearly a quarter of the area, which is a large laboratory.

As for the dissection of the giant snake, it is even more important, it is now an important topic of the biological department of the scientific research base, and even the research work on this giant snake has formed a complete set of scientific research projects, codenamed "White Lady".

After all, the white snake is also a snake, there is nothing wrong with it.

"Academician Wen, it was very tiring to engage in mass production of pills, but now you have to preside over the giant snake project, it's really hard for you." Seeing Wen Yabo with a tired face, Zhou Xinming said sincerely.

"What is this, this is the first time that our Eastern Union and even all mankind have come into contact with demon beasts, there are too many things that can be studied in it, DNA molecular research is a key project, I can preside over this great project, it is my three lives of luck, Watson and Crick If they know, they will have to envy me."

(Watson and Crick jointly discovered the double helix structure of DNA)

"Maybe our experimental team will find something at that time, I may have more space in the history textbook on aura revival in the future than Minister Zhou, by the way, let's get down to business, before the giant snake was captured, we found a total of 179 wild beasts, they came from different species."

"Didn't I mention in the experiment of mass production of pills before, will the Zhuji Dan improve the efficiency of the transcription factor and synthesize a substance with a high psionic affinity, in fact, as long as the organism itself completes the foundation, whether it is a human, an animal or a plant, its transcription factor can combine this substance. (See Chapter 30 for details)

"It's just that the difference is that Tsukidan can greatly speed up the transcription process, and the transcription efficiency of the organisms themselves alone is too low, and this law is consistent with all kinds of wild beasts, even if the spiritual strength is different.

"In order to arrive at this, we set up a number of different environmental conditions to compare, such as an environment with high nuclear radiation, an environment with high spiritual density, and other different kinds of environments, and then found that only the difference in the intensity of spiritual energy will affect the efficiency of building the foundation of living beings.

And the giant snake in the "White Lady" project has an essential difference from these wild beasts, that is, the substance with high spiritual affinity in its body has reached its peak, just like the cultivator, so it can be speculated that the transcription factor of the giant snake will no longer synthesize this mysterious substance.

"This also just proves my previous guess, that is, why Tsukidan is useless to cultivators, because this kind of substance synthesized by transcription can no longer be increased, which also proves that this substance is only used to open the pulse, and it is not of much use to cultivators.

And the "White Lady" is also a rare treasure for epigenetic research, and it is a product of a high-density spiritual power environment.

"First of all, based on the DNA we extracted and purified from the giant snake cells, there was no effect of psionic energy on the structure of the DNA, and its non-coding DNA did not seem to be activated, but this needs to be verified by a living monster.

"But the previous basic can be confirmed, that is, cultivation does not change the DNA sequence in essence, whether it is humans, animals and plants, this is very similar to the theory of epigenetics, it is to cause the expression of cells and gene structures through some mechanisms without changing the DNA sequence.

Zhou Xinming nodded and said: "I remember that molecular biology has a lot to do with epigenetics, such as sulfite sequencing and other technologies, which have greatly helped its development." ”

"That's right, the variable of psionic energy can completely subvert modern biology, of course I am not Lysenko, and I will not directly deny Mendel's theory, but it is still necessary to have a dialectical view, after all, we have not been exposed to the variable of psionic energy in the five thousand years of history of the Eastern Union, let alone biology with a relatively short history."

"Okay, the detailed report is here, now I'm talking about theoretical research, it is impossible to generate commercial value in the short term, I know that most people are not interested in this kind of theoretical research, after all, theory cannot be directly converted into productivity, so I will not waste time to continue talking."

"So let's talk about the practical point now, that is, this giant snake is edible, or compared to the desolate beasts of its original species, some demon beasts have great edible value!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xinming's eyes lit up suddenly, and several secretaries and committee members accompanying him couldn't help but swallow their saliva, this discovery not to mention the short-term impact, even if it is long-term, it is not inferior to the previous theories.

After all, in terms of food culture, the Eastern Union is the world's first-class level, basically the Eastern Regions of the Eastern Continent are deeply influenced by it, and even the most representative traditional culture of the Eastern Union, it is not an exaggeration to say that the diversity of the cuisine of the Eastern Union alone is richer than most countries.

As for the West, this aspect is really not good, for an egg, they can do all kinds of messy surface tension, PH value, osmotic pressure calculations, but these people in the laboratory forget the simplest truth, that is, the food is made for people to eat. [Note]

Not to mention Cohen, a neighbor on the other side of the ocean, whose local cuisine is basically no different from their place of origin, except for the fast food that changes its variety.

In addition, because of long-term poverty and famine, the people of OUCC may be poor and afraid, and they attach great importance to their attitude towards eating, which is the number one thing.

Zhou Xinming carefully adjusted his language and asked, "Academician Wen, didn't you say that cannibalism will lead to the spread of prions?" This giant snake must be eating people, and the reason why demon beasts are called demon beasts is that they all have the habit of eating people, and there are basically no vegan demon beasts.

As for the Kunlun Realm, the people who eat demon beasts are basically cultivators, and they rarely hear of ordinary people doing this kind of thing, even if the demon beasts are poisonous or prions, they are definitely not afraid, so I can't use the experience of Yunxiao Tianjun to determine whether the demon beasts have edible value. ”

"Minister Zhou, you have asked the key to this question, this also involves why there are no harmful substances in the monster meat, in this case, I have to make sure first, Minister Zhou, do you know what prions are in essence?"

"Hmm...... I'm an amateur in this area, but from what I know, it seems that the β of the protein folded wrongly, which caused a problem with the protein structure. Zhou Xinming thought for a while and said.
