Amr Morsi Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Is it true that scientists now are examining a new thing in DNA's Theory although it is believed to be getting closed and finished? Would any one advise? I don't have to do with Biology and Medicine? But, I did have deep courses and read books about many branches in biology and the family are specialized.

insane_alien Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 We do not yet have a complete understanding of the many many functions of DNA. Whoever told you our understanding was complete was wrong. We know the structure and DNA sequencing is getting cheaper and easier every day but there are some areas on how those sequences are expressed that are not understood at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharonY Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 In fact, not only the sequence is of relevance. The DNA molecule as a whole possesses a very dynamic structure (which is kind of expected due to the fact that it is a lot of activity is going on there), and that this also has very important impacts on e.g. cell regulation. So there are huge chunks of knowledge still missing all around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amr Morsi Posted September 12, 2011 Author Share Posted September 12, 2011 Thanks Sirs, it is really great. Another questions please. Is there any contradictions or even paradoxes met, or being asked, in DNA Theory? Like correlation between different genes on the same chromosome.
