Who Made The Code?

    A few weeks ago, discoveries were made that show that there is another DNA code language that rides on top of the already incredibly complex 4-letter code previously discovered. This newly discovered code apparently regulates how genes work. As I noted in a previous thread, the amount of data storage available in the DNA storage system just the size of a pin-head would filll a stack of books stacked from your driveway to the moon .... 500 times! With this new coding language discovery, it appears that this capacity was under-estimated.

    Bill Gates “DNA is like a computer program but far, far more advanced than any software ever created.” ― Bill Gates, The Road Ahead

    Some theoretical scientists would have us believe that the most sophisticated code language(s) known to the most brilliant minds on earth just appeared out of rocks and mud.

    When Darwin promoted his theory in the mid 19th century it was assumed that the cell performed a few simple chemical reactions and was not much different than some kind of chemical goo that got its start in a lightning storm. Now we know that the cell has hundreds of irreducible complex interdependent parts and that the computerized guidance system is more complex than anything we can in all our wisdom hardly imagine, much less devise. This is not even mentioning the biological hardware machinery needed to run such coding languages.

    Where did all this coding language come from?

    Is Bill Gates the deciding factor in making us accept this statement? Just Asking

    congratulation on finding a new topic to copy paste.

    for those interested in how new code arise in a laboratory setting:

    Bohm, maybe I've misread it but that Wikipaedia article makes no mention of "new code" arising in the E.coli, as you claim. Are you talking about 'new' code arising or mutation and reorganisation of existing code?

    Bohn,

    On another thread, we've already looked at how after thousands of generations this bacteria is STILL BACTERIA. This does not address the ORIGIN of the coding language, which is the subject of this thread. Where did the coding language come from?

    Here is more to add to the question so those who can it can evolve don't avoid it....

    " The existence of variant codes and the success of experiments on the incorporation of unnatural amino acids briefly discussed in the preceding section indicates that the genetic code has a degree of evolvability. However, all these deviations involve only a few codons, so in its main features, the structure of the code seems not to have changed through the entire history of life or, more precisely, at least, since the time of the Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA) of all modern (cellular) life forms. "

    Yadda yadda: according to the theory of evolution that is one of the primary ways new code arise.

    perry: it is bohm.

    with a m

    yes it is still a bacteria. Mind you are the one thinking a bacteria or dirt can turn into a bird in a short time not me.

    The summary of that entensive article is this....

    " Summarizing the state of the art in the study of the code evolution, we cannot escape considerable skepticism. It seems that the two-pronged fundamental question: “why is the genetic code the way it is and how did it come to be?”, that was asked over 50 years ago, at the dawn of molecular biology, might remain pertinent even in another 50 years. Our consolation is that we cannot think of a more fundamental problem in biology."

    Theory or actual occurrence? Is new code arising in the E.coli or not? I don't see any reference to that in the article you posted.

    Yadda: ... so you believe the change in function for the bacteria does not have a genetic basis?
