Having recently completed the first stage of the ground breaking David
Fontaine Genome Project, I thought I would share a sample of his DNA ;-)
Apologies to Crick and Watson.

Oops I didn't realise it was so many KB -- sorry all.

Hi Ian,

don't we need four colors for a "real" DNA? I can only see red green and
blue. But maybe David is some kind of mutation or even an alien.
No, no ... he must be a bacterium. Some bacteriums have a ring of DNA.
(If this theory is true, then a bacterium makes better POV images than
me!)
And remember that you can't mix all color pairs. As far as I remember
(my last lessons in biology are 11 years past) not all colors can be
combined. There are only two pairs that fit.

Karl (the germ)

Tee-hee!
Hmm, in real DNA, one nitrogen base is always opposite another (eg
red<->green blue<->yellow) so the two strands are ocmplimentary.
But, where does the enzyme begin transcription and how does the RNA enter
the ribosome? :)

Gee, I saw the yellow right away...
Ring DNA? Cool! But doesn't it need and end to begin translation and
transcription?

    Should only need a marker, think 4D...

Hi,

the files size is well balanced by your sens of humour ! ;-)

Mmmm... Looks like candy... Crunch... Mmmmm... Sorry hope you still have
the code for that one... =) <Genome w/ a big byte>

Thus the apologies to Crick and Watson for my complete bastardisation of the
genetic code ;-P
