More Powerful Than DNA

One of the most potent discoveries that have changed the course of science and have affected every aspect of life on this planet is DNA discovery. DNA was first identified in the late 1860s by Swiss chemist Friedrich Miescher. In the decades following Miescher’s discovery, other scientists — notably, Gregor Mendel, Albrecht Kossel, Walter Sutton, Theodor Boveri. Phoebus Levene and Erwin Chargaff — carried out a series of research efforts that revealed additional details about the DNA molecule, including its primary chemical components and how they joined. Without the scientific foundation provided by these pioneers, Watson, Crick, Wilkins, and Franklin may never have reached their groundbreaking conclusion of 1953: that the DNA molecule exists in the form of a three-dimensional double helix.

Though DNA and RNA are powerful discoveries and both essential to life, there is a far more complex arrangement of molecular networking that coordinates every form of energy. Peptides, polypeptides, proteins, genes are terms that we may all be familiar with and are the essential programming features integrated into every living thing. An intricate network of continual evolutionary adaptation that codes, recodes, edits, re-edits, assembles, and self-assembles to coordinate the unseen world’s higher processes.
