Chapter 366 Human genetic map, decryption completed

Gene chip technology is changing the world.

Since the birth of the first biological computer in the Chinese Academy of Sciences, countless biological computers have sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain.

First of all, several well-known supercomputers in China have completely replaced the gene chip, and completely upgraded, and then... the performance of the supercomputer has skyrocketed countless times.

Next, the military will comprehensively upgrade all military computers and military chips. The anti-jamming capability, combat effectiveness, and computing performance of aircraft missiles have been improved by leaps and bounds.

In the past, if Dongfeng Express wanted to hit the aircraft carrier, it still needed more than a dozen Dongfeng Express salvos, and the saturation attack could be used to ensure the destruction.

Now... Dongfeng Express, equipped with a gene chip, has strong anti-interference ability and super computing power, can accurately lock the target, and flexibly adopt various maneuvering tactics.

It may be a bit of an exaggeration to say that a missile kills an aircraft carrier. But... there is absolutely no problem in killing an aircraft carrier with two bursts.

In addition to the dramatic changes in the military, leaps are also being made in civilian products.

Various domestic chip manufacturing companies have fully updated their equipment and are in full swing to manufacture gene chip production lines.

The manufacturing cost of the gene chip is too low and too low, it is just a protein film.

Therefore... the emergence of gene chip technology is the most direct feeling of ordinary people. The price of various electronic products such as mobile phones and computers replaced with genetic chips has been reduced in an all-round way, but the performance has been multiplied countless times.

Gene chips are changing the world.

Lu Li opened the curtain of a new era. The motherland is taking off and surpassing it in an all-round way.

...

The turmoil in the world did not affect Lu Li's research.

After the success of the gene chip technology, Lu Li's security level has been further improved, and there are more security personnel.

Apart from that, there were no other changes, and no one bothered Lu Li.

Lu Li's research continues.

From the beginning to the end, Lu Li's research direction has not changed, and it is still to fully conquer cancer.

These achievements now are actually the by-products of the process of completely conquering cancer.

In these "by-products", Lu Li has made brilliant achievements. However, on this main project, progress has been slow.

Apart from the CAR-T anti-cancer technology initially developed, there has been little progress since then.

The key problem is that to completely conquer cancer, the prerequisite is to fully understand all the information in the human genome chain.

Human genetic map, also known as "God's design map".

All the secrets of the human body are contained in the three billion base pairs of the human gene chain.

It takes a lot of effort to fully decipher the human genetic chain.

Lu Li was lying on the sofa, closed his eyes, and entered the virtual laboratory.

In the virtual lab, the original version of the gene chip, originally used to measure genetic information, continues to operate.

Up to now, the progress of genetic information detection is still very general, and it will take at least two years to complete the detection of all genetic information.

This time, Lu Li is updating the testing equipment.

"A virtual supercomputer based on yeast protein molecular gene chip technology."

With an order, a supercomputer as large as a three-story building instantly appeared in the virtual laboratory.

"Virtual 10,000 Gene Probe Detection Array."

Another brilliance flashed, and 10,000 pieces of flat glass with a size of hundreds of square meters were installed layer by layer in a huge frame.

Every piece of flat glass is densely covered with hundreds of millions of gene probes.

Next, Lu Li built a solution circulation pipeline and a huge solution tank for storing the solution.

"Transcribing the previous detection data into the supercomputer, and continuing to carry out human genetic testing."

In the next instant, the huge biological computer supercomputing flashed a flash of light, and the supercomputing officially started.

The solution tank contains a solution of human DNA molecules, which continuously pours into the gene probe array. Hundreds of millions of gene probes began to continuously compare genes and analyze gene information.

With the cooperation of biological computer supercomputing and large-scale gene probe arrays, the progress of interpretation of human genetic information has been significantly accelerated.

"Estimated completion time: 102 days, 18 hours, 35 minutes, 27 seconds."

More than two years has turned into more than three months, which is already a huge leap.

Next, just wait.

...

The progress of human genetic information detection has been greatly improved, which is good news.

It's just that... the experiment in the virtual laboratory needs to be done again in reality in order to produce reasonable results.

Therefore, Professor Lu Li He proposed to build a gene chip-based supercomputer in Fudan and prepare a gene probe detection array.

As for Lu Li's request, the green light goes all the way from top to bottom.

The original supercomputing of Fudan University was immediately updated, and the gene probe detection array was also prepared sequentially.

In less than a month, the equipment Lu Li needed was fully equipped.

"Lu Li, it's normal for you to overcalculate. Why do you want such a large gene probe detection array?"

Professor He looked at the huge glass panels installed in the laboratory, and was somewhat confused about what Lu Li wanted to do.

"I am going to do the detection of human genetic information and compile a human genetic map."

Lu Li said the answer casually.

"what?"

Professor He was taken aback, "Even if it is a supercomputing based on a gene chip, it is not easy to compile a human genetic map, right?"

It's not a question of speed of calculation, but of speed of detection.

The process of detecting and comparing genetic information is similar to the exhaustive method. Only by eliminating all wrong answers can the correct answer be obtained.

The detection of each base pair has to be done once, and the speed is naturally not fast.

"I improved the detection mechanism, and it's much faster."

Lu Li took the time to look at the testing equipment running in the virtual laboratory. There were only more than 60 days left.

"Genetic comparison testing is expected to be completed in a few months."

"what?"

Professor He's eyes widened, "The human genetic map will be compiled by you in a few months? Really..."

Professor He didn't know what to say.

...

As time passed, the detection of human genetic information in the virtual laboratory continued to accelerate.

The further back, the more known information, the faster the detection speed.

Two months later, the testing equipment in the virtual laboratory has completed the detection of human genetic information, and a complete human genetic map has been officially compiled.

The interpretation of genetic information is complete!

Lu Li hurriedly entered the virtual laboratory and began to read the human genetic map.

The genetic information of the human body is the "design map of God's creation of man", and it is also the blueprint for the cells to construct the human body. Each segment of gene expresses the mystery of the human body.

Height, weight, hair color, skin color, eye color, muscle structure, bone structure, visceral structure... everything is expressed in genetic information.

Humans are "slaves" of genes.

Before a person is born, everything in his or her body has been determined by genetic information.

Perhaps... this is the so-called "destiny".

Of course, genetic information is only a "design plan" in a general direction. In the process of human growth and development, due to the influence of environmental factors, this "design plan" will be disturbed to a certain extent.

For example: everyone will more or less have one hand bigger than the other, or one bigger and one smaller in other places.

In the genetic information, the "design scheme" of the two is exactly the same, but there are still subtle differences in the final result.

In addition to the influence of environmental factors, there is also the influence of "disorder".

"Disorder", or chaos, or entropy, is the same thing.

All things will eventually return to chaos, and entropy increase is inevitable in the universe.

Gene expression in the human body represents an order.

Because order and disorder are in constant confrontation in the universe. So... under the influence of disorder, the identical genetic information eventually grows out of symmetrical structures that are not completely consistent.

That is to say, the phenomenon of one big and one small is ubiquitous.

In addition to this information, Lu Li also saw a lot.

A person's lifespan limit, from the time he (she) is still a fertilized/fertilized/egg, has been genetically determined.

Even a person's various so-called "talents" are all imprinted in genetic information.

In genetic information, there is also a distinction between "dominant genes" and "recessive genes". This is... the question of being like dad or mom, or even like the old king next door.

In addition, there are some "foreign genes" and "null genes" in human genes.

Foreign genes are brought to humans by viruses.

Viruses have a characteristic that they like to "drop around". When invading the human body, during the process of virus division and proliferation, the operation is very sloppy, and some gene fragments are often dropped and some gene fragments are taken away.

Therefore, the "foreign genes" that exist in human genes are all left by the virus.

As for "invalid genes", it is actually the traces of some "old ancestors" that have survived in the continuous evolution of human beings from the evolution of single-celled organisms to the present.

The traces of these "old ancestors" are outdated and will not be expressed under normal circumstances.

Of course, there are also abnormal situations, that is, the phenomenon of "attribution".

"Gene information, representing all the mysteries of the human body, is really mysterious and wonderful."

Looking at this detailed human genetic map, Lu Li couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

Nature is really amazing.

This "design drawing of God's creation of man" really gives people a feeling of "being designed".

Perhaps... some great scientists eventually believed in God, and it was not without reason.

In this "design drawing", Lu Li also saw many disease genes.

Among them are some of the diseases that Neanderthals brought to modern people, such as: depression, allergies, blood clots, nicotine addiction, nutritional imbalances, urinary incontinence, bladder pain, urethral dysfunction, type 2 diabetes, Crohn's disease, lupus, biliary cirrhosis, etc.

So, when Homo sapiens fought against Neanderthals, it was enough to kill them, so why bother? Infinite disaster!

Seeing these disease genes, Lu Li was helpless.

Even with his genetics, he couldn't do anything about it.

Why? Because... can't handle it!

There are sixty trillion cells in the human body, and each cell has a gene chain. To edit and modify the genetic information in all cells...

Ha ha! Why do I have to borrow another five hundred years from the sky!

The only thing that can be done is to modify the genes from the embryonic stage to delete these disease genes, so that the newly born baby will be free from these diseases.

This is another ethical issue!

Because... after the gene editing modification, there is a question of "is this my species or not".

Forget it, leave this to others to worry about!

Lu Li put aside these messy thoughts and focused on the main goal - finally conquering cancer.

The genetic representation of cancer is also obvious. From the human genetic map, Lu Li can clearly see the gene fragments that cause cancer to grow, and even are born with cancer gene information.

There is still a problem here.

For an adult, to complete gene editing modifications throughout the body, sixty trillion cells must be modified throughout the body.

Still that sentence, I have to borrow another five hundred years from the sky!

Editing and modifying all the genetic information of an adult is simply an impossible task.

Even if Lu Li has developed the latest gene editing tools, even if Lu Li has deciphered the human genetic map, but... the huge number of sixty trillion makes Lu Li deeply desperate!

Can't figure it out!

Unless nanorobots can be researched, sixty trillion nanorobots will enter human cells at the same time and perform gene editing modifications at the same time.

Otherwise, the cells will be modified one by one... I really have to live another five hundred years!

As for the nanorobots...let's just wash and sleep, there is everything in the dream.

This road is dead!

At least the existing science and technology can't go this way at all.

Extract the infinite division gene characteristics of cancer cells, and integrate them into normal human cells through gene editing technology, so that normal cells have the ability to divide infinitely, so as to achieve... immortality.

This technology...the future is bright, the road is tortuous.

It's gone now!

Lu Li sighed and exited the virtual lab.

Sitting on the sofa, he stretched out his hand and pulled out a cigarette to light it. Lu Li took a deep breath and suddenly thought... Nicotine addiction is also genetically determined.

Humans are slaves to genes.

You think you want to smoke, but it's actually a Neanderthal genetic defect that makes you want to smoke.

Go to special genes!

Lu Li put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray.

The road ahead has been cut off, and it is no longer feasible in science and technology. Cancer, which originates from the "evolution" of gene mutation, cannot be solved completely from the existing science and technology.

This copy has no need to continue to stay.

It's just... To end this plot, you still need to win the Nobel Prize.
