That genome data can now be found on open-access
genetic
data banks around the world, and it's an enormous boon to researchers trying to come up with treatments.
You can actually be making DNA chips in your garage and decoding some
genetic
programs pretty rapidly.
Now, this is kind of a cheap shot, because I know what the
genetic
sequence of all these rhinoviruses is, and I in fact designed the chip expressly to be able to tell them apart, but what about rhinoviruses that have never seen a
genetic
sequencer?
It could have lots of bacteria, it could have more than one virus, and it certainly has host
genetic
material.
The
genetic
relationships are very close there.
Most of you already know it: third leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S. Lots of risk factors, but there is a
genetic
predisposition to prostate cancer.
We have a strong association between the presence of this virus and a
genetic
mutation that's been linked to cancer.
I'll be very short on
genetic
algorithms.
Usually, with a
genetic
algorithm on a computer today, with a three gigahertz processor, you can solve many formerly intractable problems in just a matter of minutes.
So we tried to come up with a way to use
genetic
algorithms to create a new type of concentrator.
So we created a
genetic
algorithm to try this out, we made a model in Excel of a multisurface reflector, and an amazing thing evolved, literally, from trying a billion cycles, a billion different attempts, with a fitness function that defined how can you collect the most light, from the most angles, over a day, from the sun.
So using that new twist, with the new criteria, we thought we could relook at the Stirling engine, and also bring
genetic
algorithms in.
So we took the same
genetic
algorithm that we used earlier to make that concentrator, which didn't work out for us, to optimize the Stirling engine, and make its design sizes and all of its dimensions the exact optimum to get the most power per dollar, irrespective of weight, irrespective of size, just to get the most conversion of solar energy, because the sun is free.
We applied the
genetic
algorithm.
In fact, if we look at the
genetic
code, it's the only disease we can see that people who lived in Africa actually evolved several things to avoid malarial deaths.
Once inside a cell, the virus employs additional adaptations to hijack the host cell’s reproductive machinery and replicate its own
genetic
material.
In most cases, the
genetic
dissimilarity between the two hosts is too great.
The odds of winning this destructive
genetic
lottery increase over time, or if the new species is closely related to the virus’ usual host.
And a virus adapted to chimpanzees, one of our closest
genetic
relatives, might barely require any changes at all.
It takes more than time and
genetic
similarity for a host jump to be successful.
You do that with
genetic
engineering and synthetic biology.
The virus also inserts
genetic
information to activate the T cells and program them into their killing mode.
This was the second dilemma: (MS) A company offers a service that takes a fertilized egg and produces millions of embryos with slight
genetic
variations.
So this is the combination where we have all this
genetic
potential in the tropics, which is still unexploited, and doing it in combination with technology.
There are so many different kinds of seaweed, there's unbelievable
genetic
diversity in seaweed, and they're very ancient; they were some of the first multicellular organisms ever to evolve.
That event was the origin of life: creating the first
genetic
knowledge, coding for biological adaptations, coding for novelty.
So they have very few genes and
genetic
information to encode all of the traits that they carry out.
And, of course, it's the DNA that counts, so here's all the A, T, Gs and Cs that make up your
genetic
code and give you all your charming characteristics.
You take a six to eight cell embryo, you tease out one of the cells, you run a
genetic
test on that cell, and depending on the results of that test you either implant that embryo or you discard it.
And pretty soon it's going to be possible to avoid virtually all
genetic
diseases in that way.
