The discovery takes us one step closer to creating digital data storage out of DNA.
Scientists may be one step closer to creating digital data storage out of DNA after developing a glassy, amber-like material to preserve the molecule.The first DNA sequence to be stored in this way encodes the movie theme from Jurassic Park, in a nod to the amber-preserved DNA extraction used to resurrect the dinosaurs in the film franchise.
This allows it to be degraded in a controlled way to access the information stored inside.'We can choose how we want to degrade them,' Jeremiah Johnson, the A. Thomas Geurtin Professor of Chemistry at MIT and co-author on the research, said in a statement.This method, which the researchers have dubbed the T-REX method , takes only a few hours to set the DNA and can store DNA molecules of varying sizes, from just a few dozen 'letters' to the entire human genome.
