DNA as a Template for Minerals
Copying DNA structures with silicates- a step toward ordered synthetic inorganic materials?
17-Jun-2004 -
DNA carries the blueprint for all living things-and now it could also serve as
the model for "dead" inorganic materials. However, the mechanism will be
completely different from the usual "transcription" of the code by base pairs;
