Transposons. Cut-and-paste DNA. No, literally. They were discovered back around 1983, and they're still being studied today -- people, the point I'm getting at here is cut-and-paste DNA. Any idea who I'm going to apply this to?
Also, transposons can be dangerous: they "can damage the genome of their host cell in different ways", including disabling or damaging the genes as they enter and leave them, or stopping chromosones from duplicating properly.
It's still better than eating the brains. :P |
