By the way, I had a random thought come to me today that “junk” DNA may harbor instructions that affect *other* species rather than the carrier, that might be transmitted via a bite or a sting, and might alter the victim. Anyone hear of any research along these lines? |
Hey, yeah! DNA that gets injected, and then invades cells and coopts the victim's cellular machinery! A perfect mix of eukaryotes, viruses, and tard!
