Reversing the conventional dna wisdom

http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/2008/reverse-dna-1204.html


The copying of DNA's master instructions into messenger molecules of RNA, a process known as DNA transcription, has always been thought to be a unidirectional process whereby a copying machine starts and moves in one direction. But in work that represents a fundamental shift in scientists' understanding of the phenomenon, MIT researchers have found evidence that two DNA copying machines frequently start from the same site and move in different directions.

We have faith that they are pink; we logically know that they are invisible because we can't see them."
