A Look Back

Dark Matter Blog

As soon as I learned about DNA and RNA, I wanted to be a molecular biologist. Last stops at RNA My last roles in biotech were where my original passion began: DNA and RNA. I did a postdoc with Paul Berg at Stanford, studying transcriptional regulation. The only subject in school that held my interest was biology.

Beyond Steel Tanks

Codon

Credit: Universität Würzburg Archives His key insight hinged upon the fact that living cells are essentially bags of liquid filled with enzymes, or proteins that speed up chemical reactions. Water accounts for 70 percent of a bacterium by mass; the other 30 percent includes everything else: proteins, RNA, DNA, lipids, and so on.
