See the existing work with DNA Origami and DNA robot arm factory as examples of similar work.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;The purpose is so you can more rapidly synthesize DNA strands and structures and combine them with small molecules. Molecules use to transport other molecules and assemble them under programmatic control.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;you can get more powerful synthetic biology. That uses DNA, RNA and proteins &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;See the kinds of parts&lt;BR/&gt;http://parts.mit.edu/registry/index.php/Part_Types&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;DNA parts&lt;BR/&gt;http://parts.mit.edu/r/parts/partsdb/pgroup.cgi?pgroup=dna&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Sensors, computers from DNA and what they can be combined with can  be used to create highly precise and controlled delivery of drugs in the body.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;If you go from the 8000 BP that some of the synthetic biology devices are now up to 3 million using the software controlled factory that can be an artificial ribosome. Give a separate and programmable means to precisely control the metabolism of life.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribosome</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17555522/7540325414450093725/comments/default/8066503648157659336'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17555522/7540325414450093725/comments/default/8066503648157659336'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nextbigfuture.com/2007/01/software-control-of-dna-oligomer.html?showComment=1182400680000#c8066503648157659336' title=''/><author><name>bw</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07541279438184352860</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='00145893350009452750'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://nextbigfuture.com/2007/01/software-control-of-dna-oligomer.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17555522.post-7540325414450093725' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17555522/posts/default/7540325414450093725' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17555522.post-6761535469515105292</id><published>2007-06-20T18:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-06-20T18:49:00.000-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Will that be possible?What is purpose of building ...</title><content type='html'>Will that be possible?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;What is purpose of building the DNA machine?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Fei</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17555522/7540325414450093725/comments/default/6761535469515105292'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17555522/7540325414450093725/comments/default/6761535469515105292'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nextbigfuture.com/2007/01/software-control-of-dna-oligomer.html?showComment=1182390540000#c6761535469515105292' title=''/><author><name>Fei</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10569543291994607608</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://nextbigfuture.com/2007/01/software-control-of-dna-oligomer.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17555522.post-7540325414450093725' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17555522/posts/default/7540325414450093725' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
