Policeing Mutations/ error repear
Zelos:
shvarz, what you showed aint DNA, its RNA. DNA is made up of A,T,C and G. while RNA is the same exept that T have become you
shvarz:
DNA on its own makes little sense. If you want to make protein, you have to go through RNA. That is why genetic code is usually written using A, C, G and you (instead of T). For any biologist T and you are so interchangable that one can use either one and will be understood.
Zelos:
I know shvarz, but the code for everything is ATCG not AUCG, thats for the messager ;)
Numsgil:
That's not exactly accurate. If you trace the development of DNA and RNA, you see that RNA is the thing, and DNA is just the backup hard copy.
Zelos:
RNA is nothing in the lifeforms we know today, it was the DNA in begining (they think). but cause the dna is more stable than RNA it become the storage of information. now RNA is used to put aminoacids toghater and transmit information from the DNA, its mRNA, and what are the other ones?
