Re: Useful analogy, but just an analogy.

I think you are saying that a stereochemical pathway exists for genetic messages from DNA to proetins, allowing all the structural information to be communicated by way of mechanical bonding. I would agree.
Hmm... I was under the impression that you were disagreeing in a couple of other threads. Thanks for the acknowledgement.
Why do you suppose the structural information in that message cannot travel backwards from the protein to the gene? Irreversible mechanics?
Is there a problem with a mechanical process being irreversible?
