Hey everybody, long time, no key. So, I was looking at the web site of a company called 23andme.com. This page http://www.23andme.com/jobs.html gives a hint...
No, it doesn't. But the surface page says to be re-source-ful (source is in italics)...and it's the only thing that seems at all covert on the page. The...
I agree with you on all that. I'm just asking what leads you to believe that she wanted the reader to do something with the sequence in the source other than...
Hi Alexandra, Well, if it is indeed a cipher (has that been established?) it would seem to me that your first steps have been sensible and correct, ie 1) look...
Alexandra, Oh! There are 637 letters, not 636! So surely this just about rules out a cipher made up of codons....? Tim ________________________________ From:...
Oh, you're right! How did I miss that? Well, maybe it would be worthwhile to start building codons from the 2nd position. Nope, tried that. And third. ... ...
I don't know if it helps, but 637 is 7 * 7 * 13 All the best David Cookson www.musicalsolutions.com...

Nothing other than that it would be somewhat inelegant to just dump a bunch of codons into the source code and leave it at that. Wishful thinking, maybe!? Is...
Hi Alexandra, Yes, I think it's far more likely to be a repeating 29-amino acid peptide, or something (I'm trying to sound knowedgable here) rather than a...
And the answer is: It's DNA from human chromosome 11. Each segment is expanded by two markers with the rest repeating. Sorry, but no secret code... John ... ...
Dave: Wish I could take credit for it, but I can't. It was fellow ACA member HONEYBEE who figured it out. The rest of this group should join us! John KEYSTONE ...
Hmmm, I googled that sequence of bases and didn't come up with anything. You mean to say, the whole human genome isn't indexed somewhere??? Seriously, how did...
Don't know how she identified it. I'll ask her. She knew all about 23andme and someone who had registered his DNA there. As for the entire genome, I don't...
Hi, When bioscientists encounter a sequence, ususally the first thing they do is do a BLAST (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST/) search. The sequence you...
The entire genome is small compared to the length the e-mails on this thread will be if everyone keeps copying the entire thread at the end of their messages....
