guanine

I do not expect aliens to have guanine, adenine, etc. as their storage device, but that's not to say they won't have one.

The letters in the word are from DNA base pairs: guanine, thymine, adenosine, and cytosine. Attica is a part of ancient Greece.

I would take adenosine, guanine, taurine, and cytosine and pair them into double helices. And I would make sharing them fun.

When DNA is replicated, methyl-cytosine pairs with guanine just like cytosine does. The only way to maintain the 'methylation marks' is to add a methyl group back on to the newly synthesized cytosine.

And that would be if we just had monkeys supplied with adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine putting DNA together. Never mind that these are each complicated molecules in themselves that have to be assembled at random.

They can list things like gelatin, glycerides, lecithin, guanine, and other lesser understood animal products by those obscure names.

Sure, components may be the same, but so is guanine, adenine, thymine, and cytosine, yet these components make so very different creatures. I think your opinion is valuable, but getting more data is required: have you shown that project to your target audience?

Why aren't people looking at guanine-positron hole trapping for building quantum circuits? I mean they are super easy to construct and can readily trap potassium and calcium in close enough proximity to get spin coupling with electron resonance to a gold scaffold.

It may be that our DNA uses only the four specific bases guanine, cytosine, adenine, and thymine because wobble pairings provided additional mutation resistance, or offered additional structural options for transcribed proteins.

It is not true that the map of freedom will be complete with the erasure of the of the last invidious boarder when it remains for us to chart the attractors of thunder and delinate the arrhythmias of drought to reveal the molecular dialects of forest and savana as rich as a thousand human tongues and to comprehend the deepest history of our passions ancient beyond mythology's reach So I declare that no corporation holds a monopoly on numbers no patent can encompass zero and one no nation has sovereignty over adenine and guanine no empire rules the quantum waves And there must be room for all at the celebration of understanding for there is a truth which cannot be bought or sold imposed by force, resisted or escaped ~~ Greg Egan, forward of the novel Distress
