REDUCED NOISE. “The circuit chassis compatibility assays reported here (Fig. 6) indicate that the use of orthogonal and exogenous gene elements for a synthetic circuit in a chassis help to minimize the potential unintended interactions between the circuit and host genetic programmes.” https://lnkd.in/dsEUY4ZP View in LinkedIn

CHEMICAL SIGNALS. “Unlike electronic digital circuits, the components in a biological circuit are not connected by wires, and the flow of biological information has to depend on their specific chemical interactions to avoid cross-talk.” https://lnkd.in/dsEUY4ZP View in LinkedIn

A GREAT START. “There is a pressing need to expand the currently limited parts kit of gene circuit engineering. As demonstrated in the construction of the genetic logic gates, the diverse natural building blocks in the myriad of prokaryotic and eukaryotic species provides a rich source from which to engineer orthogonal devices with a variety functions.” https://lnkd.in/dsEUY4ZP View in LinkedIn

SO ENDS this second and last weekend in gene logic gates fashioned after the genius of electronic logic gates. Curiously, natural biochemical controls are more related to feedback inhibition loops, and molecular saturation, rather than binary gates. Cybernetics is in its infancy with regard to biology, and soon will integrate with soma-machine interfaces. https://lnkd.in/dsEUY4ZP View in LinkedIn

CHARM FRACTIONAL CHARGES, “Up, charm, and top quarks (collectively referred to as up-type quarks) have a charge of + 2⁄3 e, while down, strange, and bottom quarks (down-type quarks) have − 1⁄3 e. The fractional charge of the quarks is an accident of the units we use to measure electric charge. If we used other units the quark charges would come out integers.” https://lnkd.in/d7yC9_D9 View in LinkedIn

IMPLICATIONS. “Implications of Newton-Santilli isodual equations. (1) Antimatter exists in a spacetime, co-existing, yet different than our own.” https://lnkd.in/drUkrKWz View in LinkedIn

IMPLICATIONS. “(2) Antimatter moves backward in time in a way as causal as the mo- tion of matter forward. In fact, Newton-Santilli's isodual equations provide the only known causal description of particles moving backward in time.” (Yes, you read it correctly). https://lnkd.in/drUkrKWz View in LinkedIn

IMPLICATIONS. “(3) Antimatter is characterized by negative mass, negative energy and negative magnitudes of other physical quantities.” https://lnkd.in/drUkrKWz View in LinkedIn

ANTIGRAVITY. “In the words of Santilli "Isodual theory of antimatter predicts the existence of antigravity (here defined as the reversal of the sign of the curvature tensor in our space-time) for antimatter in the field of matter or vice-versa" As such, the isodual theory of antimatter predicts in a consistent and systematic way at all levels of study, from Newtonian mechanics to Riemannian geometry, that matter and antimatter must experience gravitational repulsions.” https://lnkd.in/drUkrKWz View in LinkedIn
