The HIV-virus and genetic experiments

The HIV-virus and genetic experiments

Reverse transcriptase is the ultimate tool for genetic engineering. In some retroviruses, the genome is pack in the form of the DNA, and the enzyme called reverse transcriptase (or reverse transcriptase enzyme) will split that DNA into two pieces. The reverse transcriptase can use as the tool for making the genetic manipulation or genome transplant between species. In this version, the reverse transcriptase enzyme would put in the nose of the nanotube, and in that case, it will be used to split the DNA into two pieces.

There is a possibility to use the natural version of that enzyme if the researchers can isolate that molecule from some viruses. The fact is that the HIV-virus has this enzyme, and if the laboratories can isolate it from viruses, they can create the "magic stick" that can be used for genetic manipulation and genome transfer projects. But that thing requires that the virus, what is used as the DNA in the genome.

In the AIDS-virus above the genome is in the two pieces of RNA, and the reverse transcriptase will connect those RNA bites to DNA. In some cases, this enzyme just aims the RNA molecules in a different direction, Another will send to cell organ, where it will make the organ to make copies of the virus. So reverse transcription will give unlimited changes to connect and split the genomes. It can connect the RNA but it can also split the DNA. Those enzymes are different, but together they are the most powerful tools in genetic engineering.

If we are saying that HIV-virus is somehow interesting in the point of view of genetic research we might not mean that the virus is artificial. Or we don't mean that the virus is somehow artificial. The thing that makes HIV-virus interesting is that there is a thing that is called "reverse transcriptase enzyme". The purpose of that enzyme is to transform the DNA into the RNA and reverse transcriptase makes that thing by splitting the DNA in the two bites.

So what makes the reverse transcriptase enzyme so interesting? The enzyme itself can isolate from the retrovirus, and then it can split every kind of DNA into two pieces. Those pieces of DNA are the RNA molecules. The fact is that this kind of RNA can make it possible to connect the new bites of genomes between species. The thing is that by using the reverse transcriptase the genomes of the DNA of every single species can split into two pieces. And the RNA can transfer to every organism what have a nucleus.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low. The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away. When the box is filled with quantum gas and som...

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real?

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real? Is TR-3B (0) "Black Triangle UFO" or is it only the piece of paper? The study project, what is used to create advanced ideas for use of the nuclear-powered aircraft. Or is it the study project or black budget aircraft, where lost 2,3 trillion dollars (1)of the stealth bomber were gone. In this text is things, that might seem very difficult to accept, and when we are thinking about things like doubling the object or making it smaller by using huge layers of energy, nothing denies to test those things. But were those tests successful, there is no data about that in public Internet, so we must say that things like doubling the human or aircraft can be tested, but the results can be unknown. But in the source two is the tale, what seems like impossible, those men, who got Noble Prize put at first time one atom to the box, and hit it with photon one photon in the box and hit it with t...

The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862)

Image I The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862) Far away from its time is the thing, that you might notice when you see those two images. The upper one (Image I) is portraying the modern naval USS Sea Shadow (IX-529)(1) experimental Stealth ship, which was created by Lockheed-Martin, and the image below (Image II) is portraying the CSS Virginia (2), the ironclad from the Civil War Era. The thing why the hull of the CSS Virginia, what is ironclad from 1862 is that the ammunition of the cannons would not transfer their impact energy to the hull of the ship. And the reason why Sea Shadows hull has this form is that it should point the radar echo away from the hull. The thing that I must say that CSS Virginia is far ahead its time because that structure is effective against the explosive ammunition, and the slanting armor of tanks like T-34 and Sherman have made them effective. But for some reason, the use of slanting ...
