Had no idea about protein computing!

But it's kinda funny about DNA computing: years ago I had this sci fi story idea about 'junk' DNA being a message written by aliens, and the rest of the DNA (the minority), i.e. ourselves, being just a survival machine made by the aliens to take care of their message, replicate it, spread it far and wide. It was a silly and unimplemented idea for a story, but this 'storing info in binary in DNA' momentarily brought it back to life!
