NO WIFI - 100% ACCURATE - YOU'LL HAVE TO BE PATIENT UNTIL mRNA IS CREATED. - click green button to start analysis, red to stop, replenish DNA sequence if near empty. enjoy :)

    thanks bi0phaz, in fact I'm sure we already can, I've made that polymerase really really bigger than what I could've made it, my system is not compact, quite efficient but not really and quite slow.

    don't worry cantech I used PHOT for fun because it was more complicated to set up than ARAY/BRAY but for the memory thing to increment mRNA I didn't wanted to make another spectrophotometry compartment so I used ARAY/BRAY to encode a memory and read it once the DNA had arrived next to the mRNA maker, if you see what I mean

    Yeah, this stuff is complicated. When you try to make the ribosome, use ARAY/BRAY instead of PHOT. It runs faster and is easier to work with. You can also use a property of DTEC where it will color a line of FILT pixels on the opposite end it detects a BRAY. Hope that stuff helps.

    This deserves more upvotes, if only powdertoy was larger, we could simulate a whole cell!

    thanks qapla :) camtech -> I know, there's all that 64 amino acids possibilities and stuff that stop and start the protein chain but gosh that's complicated and I'll plan on making that ribosome later. glad you appreciated though :)

    DNA isn't as simple as a string of four different pieces of information. There's also things that turn on and off certain parts of the gene. And of course, a single gene doesn't mean anything. You need three genes together. These correspond to a particular amino acid or as a start and stop marker. What you have so far is cool though.

    This is pretty damn amazing. + >9000

    well I didn't put it here but DNA is still here and the polymerase just made a replication of the two sides, it's just that the system does not reassembles the DNA sides. glad you appreciated though :)

    Very cool and well made, but mRNA only has 1 side of nucleotides, ergo this is more similar to DNA replication but with uracil instead of thymine. +1
