in 150 years, i'll be laughing at you from my grave :)

100 years is a good estimate.

probably longer than that, jimmy.

I don't plan on waiting 100 years which is how long it will take to create a Jurassic Park.

ok thanx

...also, i should note that a protein is coded for by genes and the such, which are contained within chromosomes, which are within the nucleus. A protein is like talking about a single house in a city like Los Angeles.

errors are common and expected in DNA, whether it's synthesized by a computer or not.
Stem cells could be used to maybe help reproduce *a* cell, but not half a cell. Theoretically, all animal cells are similar in structure and composition. However, we do not have enough data to be able to "paste" on the other half just yet. It's not necessarily the cell itself that makes the huge difference, but rather what's contained within the nucleus and mitochondrial DNA as well.
Your idea is good, but like i said, there's still lots of work to be done before we can even begin to imagine having a "dinosaur"

On the right track to...what??

Sinornis: Just a question dont take it to heart but wouldn't they be able to say patch it up. If they had like half a cell or sumthin, they could pacth it up with a stem cell. Is that possible, it seems scientifically possible as it rebuilds half finished cells.
However i do understand that it wont magically recreate the whole damn thing.
BTW, i wouldn't trusts a PC recreating a dinosaur. Errors could happen.

seems Jurassic Park will be alive before we know it, that is if there going this fast,and if there not lying

hey Danny boy! wtf is going on, this is the comment section for that archosaur thing, not the new JP game

i believe they are working backwards...

Not really. Archosaurs are a group of animals consisting of the dinosaurs, birds, crocs, pterosaurs, etc. What they're doing, as I undertand it, is trying to recreate a protein of the most basal (and extinct) archosaur.

Oh, well that clears things up. :) That article was just really poorly written or something. So they're using the computer to guess the structure of the protein, then see if it matches up with the species?

Elevensies!

hehe, i was waiting for that Mallon...

Archosaurs aren't yet extinct, Dan. :)

I still say it will be about 100 years at least before we clone a dinosaur but we will clone a mammoth in about 10-20 years since we already have intact mammoth DNA.

underdog:
there are no other cells, so stem cells don't come into play on this.
In this case, there'd be no need to worry about massive sequence gaps because ALL of the sequencing is PREDICTED by the computer. So in other words, it's not really being "replaced" with anything.

cool!
but I´d like to know about the major sequence gap?
I don´t know what that is but it´d be cool to have a follow up on this story...

I just pray to God that they don't use west African frog DNA to fill in the missing gene sequence gaps! ANYTHING but west African frog DNA!!
At 6:47:34 AM on 9/9/2002, underdog738 said:
They could try and patch it up with Stem Cells to recreate the missing cells.
At 12:06:33 AM on 9/9/2002, Sinornis said:
what do you guys want to know?
At 11:14:27 PM on 9/8/2002, RaptorVinny500 said:
oh and...very fascinating. i don't really get it *scatches his head, confused* but, ah....GO SCIENCE!
