@BrianRoemmele If you humanize something, please make it dignified. I think I would be okay with fetal position when unboxing a new humanoid robot, but open to ideas.
@josiezayner Depends on the subfield. Some areas are streamlined, but others require building your own infrastructure to make any progress. Unlike software, biology still lacks true abstraction layers - there’s very little ‘AWS for biology’ despite recent claims.
@DdelAlamo Could it be that DNA they considered here is mostly in double-stranded form (~linear) and that RNA is most single-stranded and has complex secondary structure of its own?
Before and after footage showing the improvement made by Gath, a Parkinson's patient after just two days on a new drug Produodopa treatment, after being diagnosed 12 years ago.
@NikoMcCarty You can just use synthesized linear DNA in cell-free. There is no need for cloning.
Folding issues are not unique to cell-free systems. Some sequences just don't fold as well as others and/or are less soluble.
