Chapter 735: Auntie, wait a minute! (Two/three)

Capital,
Institute of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, Academy of Sciences.
An accident two months ago buried an indelible shadow here. Although there were no casualties, it caused irreversible economic losses. Although China is recognized worldwide in the field of CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing Leader, but this kind of technology still has serious flaws.
How to make up for this defect has become the task to be completed by the Institute of Biochemistry and Cell Biology of the Academy of Sciences, although CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology has quickly become the most popular technology in life sciences due to its simplicity, efficiency and diversity.
Especially used in gene therapy of human diseases, it is hailed as one of the most potentially transformative innovations in modern human medicine, but success is often the result of repeated failures. The accident two months ago is the most Good description.
A department,
Silence has always been shrouded in this office. A dozen or so top researchers in the industry are feeling headaches for upgrading CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology. A whole month has passed, and there has been no gain.
For the research on the repeated sequence of short palindromes at regular intervals, many people present are elites, but how to upgrade has stumped everyone, and many of them are PhDs.
at first,
Everyone’s goal is great, to establish an existence beyond the CRISPR system, but with continuous in-depth research, it is gradually discovered that the cruelty of reality has exceeded everyone’s imagination. The CRISPR system cannot be surpassed at this stage, only in the original On the basis of fine optimization.
However, the CRISPR system has developed from the 1990s to the present, and has been upgraded by countless biological scientists, and has reached a point where it can no longer be optimized. At present... the CRISPR system has entered a bottleneck period. If you want to break through... Unless there is a completely new theory.
Just like physics, the span from classical physics to modern physics is hundreds of years. Modern physics to new physics is still an unknown number. Biology has just experienced a huge revolution. When the next revolution will begin, it is unknown like physics.
"Ugh..."
"It's so difficult!" A doctor in the office sighed, his words full of helplessness: "The world knows that the main challenge in the standard CRISPR-Cas9 system is to reduce the probability of missed targets, but who can do it? Even if it does. ...It is equivalent to borrowing the outer shell of the CRISPR-Cas9 system, but the contents inside are completely different."
"Then what are you going to do?" The middle-aged man sitting beside him with a sad face smiled bitterly: "If this problem is not solved, we may be cut down significantly. After all, the shadow of this matter is too great. "
For a while,
Helpless emotions flooded the hearts of everyone present. This problem is not a sporadic difficulty. Unless there is a genius like Xu Mang, don't think about success.
Xu Mang?
Many people have thought of what happened just a few days ago. Regarding the artificial intelligence that predicts the three-dimensional structure of proteins from amino acid sequences, if Professor Xu Mang develops a similar gene editing AI, there may be unexpected results.
"Ugh?"
"Do you think... if Professor Xu Mang suddenly designs a gene editing AI one day, will there be a world-class biological revolution?" The doctor said curiously, "I think it can... currently in the protein structure , Has caused a huge response."
"difficult!"
"It's hard!"
"I think the CRISPR system is already the most perfect existence, and it cannot be surpassed in a short time." The middle-aged man smiled bitterly: "This kind of idea... A moment, but gene editing...I don’t think it’s possible!"
While everyone was discussing this matter, Academician Zhong walked in and said to everyone present: "Ahem... Just be quiet. I will announce two things here."
Words fall,
The office fell into silence, and everyone looked at Academician Zhong who was standing at the door with a trace of doubt.
"First of all, I won the right to use the artificial intelligence'Shuman System' for predicting the three-dimensional structure of proteins from amino acid sequences." Professor Zhong said: "System hunting will be carried out in the near future, and everyone can use this technology in the future. The study of protein structure."
"Second...Professor Xu Mang has accepted my request to help us achieve breakthroughs in the field of gene editing." Professor Zhong said: "But...I hope you will not start to relax because of Professor Xu Mang's joining. Down, you still have to keep going all out."
"???"
"???"
"???"
He... is he really here?
Hearing what Academician Zhong said, many people were surprised by infinite surprises, but then they were questioning, not questioning Xu Mang, but questioning their own strength.
It's a horrible thing to say, but a physicist is required to save the field. This...Is this own creature learned in vain?
"In order to mobilize your enthusiasm, uh... your entire team confronts Professor Xu Mang to see who can take the lead in completing the innovative work in the field of gene editing." Academician Zhong laughed: "He is only one person, but you There are about ten, there should be no problem, right?"
no problem?
This problem is not small!
If it was before the change, everyone was full of confidence. How could one person be against a team of a dozen people, but now... I'm sorry, I can really fight! And it's more than just fighting against a team. Not long ago, Xu Mang suppressed nine American AI teams with just one person.
As you can imagine,
Win more with less, no...with one enemy and one hundred, it's not right...It should be one man who plays the role of one man and one man who can do nothing. This is Professor Xu Mang's routine operation.
"Academician Zhong... are you kidding me." The doctor said, "All deeds tell us that none of those competing with Professor Xu Mang ended up well. I guess we will not be able to do it. This is not a confrontation of magnitude at all. "
"You lost before you even started?" Academician Zhong said helplessly: "We all cheer up. We can't rely on Professor Xu Mang alone. What if he fails?"
Words fall,
Academician Zhong left, and on the way to his office, he met a colleague, Academician Chu, an expert in bioinformatics.
"Old clock?"
"I heard that you went to Fuda University?" Lao Chu asked curiously, "I remember that you went yesterday? Why did you meet you here today...this morning? Wouldn't you come back overnight? "
Academician Zhong smiled bitterly and said: "Yes...it hasn't solved the matter two months ago. The above hopes to sum up the relevant experience based on a previous mistake, and then strive for a breakthrough in this field, but the breakthrough is so simple. "
"and so..."
"You found Professor Xu Mang?" Lao Chu smiled and said, "How is the situation? Did he agree?"
"accepted."
"At the same time, I also got the right to use the'Xu Man System'." Academician Zhong said: "By the way, Lao Chu...what do you think is the probability that Xu Mang will break the existing framework in the field of gene editing?"
"do not know."
"Don't ask me this question." Old Chu said bitterly: "His matter...I don't say anything."
"..."
Academician Zhong said helplessly: "Is it necessary to be so cautious? You can and can't, and the probability is only 50%. It is so difficult to give an accurate explanation?"
"Not difficult!"
"But if the other party is Xu Mang, it will be very difficult...you should understand what I mean." Lao Chu said seriously, "Don't think he is a physics man, but he knows everything, and he is very proficient in everything. This is totally unreasonable."
Academician Zhong smiled: "Tell your department to help the molecular biology department complete breakthrough tasks in the field of gene editing."
"it is good!"
"Are you planning to compete with Xu Mang?" Old Chu asked.
"almost!"
"I want to see how far the researchers in our department are from Professor Xu Mang." Academician Zhong said: "Professor Xu Mang's job is to engage in physics, and they graduated from biology. Don’t you want to know how much the gap between them is?"
Old Chu opened his mouth, and an unspeakable word was stuck in his throat.
to be frank...
Not at all!
...
Magic city,
Yang Xiaoman and Xu Mang were walking hand in hand, but Xu Mang actually didn’t want to come out. This cold weather... and the cold in the south is not the same as the cold in the north. The north is a physical attack, and the south is a magical attack. Humidity...If you don't get it right, you get rheumatism.
"Ugh..."
"Wife?"
"Aren't you not cold at all?" Xu Mang asked cautiously: "I'm almost freezing~EbookFREE.me~ Make sure the heating at home doesn't blow, and what steps should I take out? If I catch a cold... Do you know how much the loss is to our country? The progress of a large research project has been put on hold, and time is money!"
Yang Xiaoman: (#￣～￣#)
Walk around after a meal to increase the emotions between each other. Why is there so much nonsense?
I'm furious!
"Will you die after walking?" Yang Xiaoman said angrily, "Aren't you studying gene editing? Can you edit your own gene first? I'm lazy to die..."
After being educated by Xiaoman, Xu Mang became more honest, and silently accompanied her to perform cold wind activities.
At this time,
A pair of young couples who looked like high school came to face each other.
"Auntie?"
"Auntie, wait a moment!" Suddenly the girl rushed to Yang Xiaoman and asked curiously: "Auntie...Your dress is pretty. Is it warm to wear?"
Ah...
Auntie?
Yang Xiaoman heard the little girl calling herself an aunt, and suddenly there was a short circuit in her brain and looked at her with a confused expression.
"Uh..."
"It looks very warm, I want to buy one for my mother too!" The little girl studied Xiaoman's coat carefully, and didn't seem to notice how terrifying the owner's expression was.
I...
Auntie?
Buy one for mom?
Yang Xiaoman has completely collapsed, like losing his nerves, can't feel breathing, even the air is choked...
suddenly,
Xu Mang hugged Yang Xiaoman and yelled at the couple nervously: "Run! Run! It's too late to run, otherwise you will be transformed into words... You will be Shen Jiang!"
