Jun 12, 2016 at 20:17 comment added noɥʇʎԀʎzɐɹƆ @DigitalTrauma My analogy would be DNA = github repo online, RNA = downloaded source code, protein chain = after ./.configure, protein folding = compiled program (it's super duper complicated, our computers can't even fold programming)
Jun 12, 2016 at 20:13 comment added noɥʇʎԀʎzɐɹƆ @DigitalTrauma DNA -> RNA -> protein chain -> protein folding -> goes of and does awesome nature

Jan 16, 2016 at 17:31 comment added Digital Trauma @Jack hard disk contents are not necessarily dead things either - upgrades, auto updates, etc, though of course not self-healing to the extent I understand DNA to be. But you're right - It is a weak analogy. However I think it got my non-geneticist self a little closer to a layman understanding
Jan 16, 2016 at 11:52 comment added nanofarad What actually occurs in practice if a piece of mRNA terminates before a stop codon (as in the simple example), meaning no stop triplet for a release factor to bind to?
Jan 16, 2016 at 10:08 comment added anon @DigitalTrauma: As a geneticist I need to point out that this analogy is woefully inadequate to describe the reality of how DNA works. DNA is not some dead thing waiting to be transcribed into RNA so it can do something.

Jan 16, 2016 at 1:53 comment added Level River St The Dogma of molecular biology is "DNA makes RNA makes protein." So DNA is fairly rare, and RNA is less famous, but far more common. Protein is most common of all.

Jan 16, 2016 at 1:42 comment added Digital Trauma The relationship of DNA to RNA to protein was once explained to me in computing terms that I could understand: DNA equates to a program on a hard disk; RNA equates to that program loaded into memory; and protein equates to the output data produced as a result of that program running.
