I quote this one from AlaskaDenise
It's so true and it's even more true when you apply this adage to the whole complexity of life of all kinds.
Every process of all cells that builts all life forms is link with DNA in a cascade of biochemical reaction, every one of them in equilibrium with one another in that process called homeostasis who keep life alive until it find a way to replicate itself and the life goes on it's way...
Just 4 nucleic acid bases ( ATCG ) that form DNA is able to code for every protean that life built with a simple code of three of those letter.
All thoses proteans (an infinite possibility) is as complex as the hemmaglutinnin we have talk about here.
All of them have a biological activity that can be use to:
-Built the frame of cells (structural, Ex:hair, keratin)
-Be the catalysys of other reactions (enzyme, ex proteases)
-Have immunological uses (Antibody, antigen,
-Or have all kind of functionnal activity ( ion pump, metabolic catalyst...)
So every other biologicals substance like saccarides (sugars or polysugars like starch or even wood) or lipid (grease, oil, cell membrane,) are made by those protean, themselves code by DNA.
From this domino chain, emerge the whole complexity of life.
Every little piece builting another next one.
If every enzymes code by every genes is as complex as the hemagglutinin that we discuss, just imagine how a whole human body is.
Influenza with his 8 little gene is just a sand grain in the gears.
Just look a this poster.
Trying to understand this virus is becoming the perfect example of the old adage - the more you know the more you know you don't know!
