Our Instruction Manual for Existing: DNA Structure & Replication: Crash Course Biology #33

Your DNA contains all the instructions your body needs to function. In this episode of Crash Course Biology, we’ll figure out what this giant instruction manual looks like and how this three-billion-letter code gets copied into your trillions of cells through DNA replication.

    Every time I have to remember which pairs go together, I just remember the round letters go together (C and G) and the pointy letters go together (A and T).

    I often say DNA is like an expensive cookbook in the reference section of a library (the nucleus) and mRNA is like a photocopy you make of the pages you need. This analogy would have been much more relevant 20-30 years ago!

    I think at 3:30 we can also make another mnemonic like remember it as G3 Cat2 (or just G Cat), G has 3 bonds with C and A has 2 bonds with T. Hope it helps.

    Do you guys purposely use angel numbers to time your youtube video timings like 13:31, 13:13, 12:36, 12:34 and 11:11. Coincidence, marketing tactic or purposefully done for motivation? Love the videos!!

    The human genome project was declared complete in 2001 but it only contained 92% of the genome (at high accuracy). It took until 2022 to fully complete it, IIUC mostly because a lot of the gaps had a bunch of near-identical repetitions of sequences, which made it hard to confirm exactly what was there with the fastest techniques we had for reading DNA.

    A large portion of it was, arguably the most relevant parts to medicine (protein coding genes etc) but the full end-to-end sequence of each chromosome was completed in ‘22. Mostly. I’m sure there are still bits that are missing, for a variety of reasons.

    It IS incredible that life can work with a four letter alphabet, from two different angles - one being "only four." The other being "FOUR?!" Because us humans created the entire Internet out of ones and zeroes. Binary can certainly function for lots of complex stuff! So having twice as many pairs to work with? It's double binary! (I recognize that I am no doubt vastly oversimplifying here.)

    *Teleological language for science is a bad choice.* To declare (as in the video title) "Our Instruction Manual for Existing" raises the question: _Who is the Instructor?_ And then there are the ancillary questions such as what if one does not want to follow the instructions?

    "Most useful?" Wouldn't the "most useful" instruction manual be something that most humans could _actually use?_ In all of human history only a handful of humans have been able to do that so far.
