Scientists find a second code besides genetics in DNA
The primary genetic code specifies the proteins that a cell makes. This second code specifies the placement of the nucleosomes, miniature protein spools around which the DNA is looped and which control access to the DNA itself.
I am sure we are far from learning everything there is to know about the structure and sequence in our DNA. One things for sure though, this is an astounding breakthrough! It can be a very scary thing also because if we learn too much about ourselves it gives certain people access to possible new methods in which to control. You know what they say power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutley.
