　⇒'Telepathic' Genes Recognize Similarities In Each Other

ScienceDaily (Jan. 26, 2008) — Genes have the ability to recognise similarities in each other from a distance, without any proteins or other biological molecules aiding the process, according to new research. This discovery could explain how similar genes find each other and group together in order to perform key processes involved in the evolution of species.

Much work remains to be done before we know the mechanism of the recognition observed in the present study and whether this recognition plays any role within the complex cellular environment, but the possibilities are intriguing. Here, our primary goal was to demonstrate homology recognition in a concentrated mixture of two fragments with the same base pair composition and length but different sequences by using physical experiments in a pure electrolytic solution. We hope that this report will catalyze more detailed studies with DNA sequences of different length and nucleotide composition in different environments.
