RE: Critical Review of a recently published discovery that RNA can induce an epigenetic engram (memory)

in #steemstem6 years ago

Seems really strange that a RNA could have such power to induce an epigenetic change... But in more complex beings maybe that is not true? Who knows...
But anyway, this is what science is about: Researching and reviewing to confirm what information is actually correct!
Good job!

I agree with you, it sounds crazy. But... We discovered the DNA somewhere in the second half of the XIX century. It took us half a century to realize what is the purpose of DNA. Proteins seemed to be much better candidates to store the genetic information.

Maybe we are looking at the molecular biology 2.0
