Chapter 633, Research on Triple Helix Genes
Li Shukuang seemed very excited at this time, dancing with joy, as if all the problems that had been bothering him were solved. It was like solving a super difficult math problem. After thinking hard for a long time without any results, he found the solution after being pointed out by others. You can imagine the joy and excitement in his heart.
"Two opposite, symmetrical, why didn't I think of this before."
Li Shukuang touched his chin. The empire's science and technology developed rapidly. In addition to the popularization of Yuanli practice, the genes of the people in the empire have been greatly developed, and the brain development has become higher and higher. In addition, the empire encourages childbirth, and the population is getting larger and larger. With a large population, there are naturally more geniuses of all kinds.
In addition to the above reasons, the internal communication and sharing mechanism of the academic community is also an important factor in promoting scientific and technological progress. In terms of the development of biology, there are countless large and small laboratories in the empire, and the number of scientists is calculated in billions, such a large scientific research team.
Each team and scientist will regularly communicate and share the results of their research internally. On the one hand, it allows other scientists to verify their research results with each other, and another more important aspect is that it can reduce unnecessary waste.
Many experiments and scientific research results have been studied by others, and other scientists can directly use them without having to study them again. This is equivalent to standing on the shoulders of predecessors, and learning is always easier than exploring on your own.
Therefore, the scientists of the empire are more engaged in innovative topics and researching new fields, expanding a discipline and a field from points to lines, then from lines to surfaces, and from surfaces to three-dimensional, in all aspects.
The more science and technology develops, the more classifications and branches appear, just like a tree. At the beginning, it is just a trunk, and when it reaches the top, it becomes a huge crown, and countless branches are large and small branch disciplines.
The mechanism of communication and sharing is actually a bit similar to the deep meaning of "three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang" and "many hands make the fire high". The wisdom and strength of the group are always stronger than the strength of the individual.
With new ideas, Li Shukuang began to lead his team to start new experiments.
"Huh~ Still no use. We have already conducted thousands of experiments, and each time the gene will collapse."
A few years later, Li Shukuang looked at the experimental data with red eyes. His handsome face was now full of fatigue. The failure of thousands of experiments made him extremely crazy. Every time he felt that the experiment seemed to be successful, but each time it ended in failure.
"Although adding new gene sequences, the gene sequences will no longer be added directly to the double helix sequence as before, but there is no way to form a triple helix gene structure."
"What went wrong?"
"The idea of three helix genes being symmetrical in pairs seems to be correct now, but why is it still not successful? It seems that no one in the imperial biological community has succeeded."
Li Shukuang carefully analyzed and thought about it. After thousands of experiments, he said very confidently that the triple helix genes must be symmetrical in pairs, but each experiment ended in failure, which made him inevitably begin to doubt his judgment.
"Triple helix gene, triple helix gene, triple helix gene."
Li Shukuang sat on the chair, touching his chin, muttering to himself, while thinking carefully about the many things and situations he had encountered in the field of biological research, trying to find a solution.
"Hmm? Could it be because I used carbon-based genes to experiment with these three helices? If I combine carbon-based and silicon-based genes, will there be new discoveries?"
"Xiao Wang, please help me check if anyone has used silicon-based and carbon-based genes to conduct related experiments on triple helix genes. If so, I need their first-hand experimental data."
Thinking about it, Li Shukuang's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had thought of something, and instructed his assistant Wang Ping.
Soon, Wang Ping checked the experimental data of countless scientists in the Empire through the internal communication and sharing platform of the Imperial Academy of Scientists. To be honest, someone really conducted related experiments. Obviously, it was not just Li Shukuang who thought of this.
"I didn't expect that hundreds of people have thought of this, but it seems that no one has succeeded. Is this idea also not feasible?"
"It is better to have no books than to believe in books blindly. You have to experiment with everything yourself to know it."
Li Shukuang carefully read the experimental data of other scientists. These data are very detailed. What is the time, place, tools and genes used, and the data related to the experimenters are all clear, which is convenient for inferring the experimental results and reversely finding the root cause of the problem.
"I think this person named Jiang Xianhe should be the closest to the success of the experiment. According to his idea, the organisms with triple helix genes are different from the organisms with double helix genes. Whether it is using 2 silicon-based genes with 1 carbon-based gene, or using 2 carbon-based genes with 1 silicon-based gene, it is actually the same. The key is to consider the division of labor between triple helix genes."
Li Shukuang spent several months reading the massive amount of data carefully and comparing them carefully. He found that a team led by a scientist named Jiang Xianhe, his research direction and results can be regarded as walking in the forefront of the field of triple helix gene research.
"The division of labor between genes is the function of genes. Well, in the field of double helix gene research, the same is true for the combination of carbon-based and silicon-based genes. Many of the empire's biological warfare soldiers use silicon-based and carbon-based genes. Gene mixing, this idea can’t be wrong.”
"Like many scientists, I wanted to go from simple to complex in the early stages of the experiment, so the experimental gene matrices used were the simplest gene matrices, with only a few gene fragments. There is no division of labor in such genes. and functions, maybe we can try to experiment with more complex gene matrices.”
Thinking of this, Li Shukuang suddenly became excited. The discouragement he had felt due to failed experiments in the past few years suddenly disappeared, and he began to invest in new experimental research.
"Haha, the idea is indeed right. The bearing capacity of a complex gene matrix is stronger than that of a simple matrix, and gene collapse will not easily occur. I dare say that if the genes of Yuanli warriors are used as the mother body, If you experiment, the endurance will definitely be stronger.”
The experiment quickly yielded results that made Li Shukuang ecstatic. Using a more complex matrix to conduct the experiment had a stronger endurance and would not cause gene collapse at every turn.
"This experiment failed again. However, although it was a failed experiment, we also made considerable progress. This time, we successfully constructed the first genome sequence of the triple helix structure. This is an unprecedented and significant progress. and results.”
"Very good. In this experiment, we successfully constructed two triple-helix gene sequences. Well, we are one step closer to success."
"Haha, we have successfully built a triple-helix gene sequence set. However, there was a problem when it was finally formed. The gene collapsed. Everyone split up and carefully studied whether it was the position of our gene sequence set. No, it should be adjusted.”
The progress of the experiment is very rapid. With every experiment, the team led by Li Shukuang can make new progress. From the beginning of constructing the first triple helix gene sequence, to slowly constructing the complete triple helix. The helical genome sequence only took a few years.
"There is definitely no problem with our ideas and methods. The key now is that we still have problems in the functional division and combination of gene fragments. Therefore, the triple helix gene sequence group we constructed has never been truly successful. In the end All genes will collapse."
"There are countless combinations of gene fragments. The more responsible genes are, the more combinations there are. Next, we need to use super quantum computers to simulate data to find the correct gene combinations."
Li Shukuang is a very experienced biological scientist and knows what to do next. The combination of gene fragments is not a random combination.
There is a big difference between the combination of plant gene fragments and animal gene fragments. It is impossible to say that animal gene fragments can be randomly combined with plant gene fragments. For example, animal reproductive gene fragments cannot be combined with plant gene fragments at all. Although reproduction is essentially the division and continuation of genes, the difference between plants and animals is still very huge.
For the combination of genes, Imperial Bio's huge gene database can provide great help. Using supercomputers to access the huge gene database, supercomputers can completely simulate various combinations. As long as the simulation experiment is successful. , scientists can conduct experiments based on this combination to see if it can really succeed.
Supercomputers are also an indispensable tool in scientific research. Too many experiments are simulated and calculated through supercomputers, which can save countless manpower, material resources and time. Of course, simulations are simulations after all, and in the end they have to pass Experiment to verify.
As time passed slowly, the research on triple helix genes became popular in the imperial biology community. Countless scientists devoted themselves to this new field day and night, hoping to gain their own honors in this new field.
