Chapter 133 Gene Repair
For a long time, Lin Zitai studied neurobiology.

Soon Duan Jianfeng came to the point where he had nothing to teach. He was just an undergraduate, and his research direction was cell molecules.

He was not proficient in neurobiology, so he could only guide Lin Zitai to get started and recommend relevant international weekly magazines.

Lin Zitai also fulfilled his promise and took Duan Jianfeng to the biopharmaceutical company, where he met Cheng Zhiyu, whom he longed for.

"Academician Cheng, this is Duan Jianfeng, a fellow student who graduated from the Department of Biology at Fudan University majoring in Cell Molecules. He has always admired you."

Duan Jianfeng's face was full of excitement, and Cheng Zhiyu lowered his head to look at the data report, looking indifferent.

Lin Zitai smiled and motioned for Duan Jianfeng to come forward and talk. He fulfilled his promise and gave this opportunity, but whether he could seize it well depends on Duan Jianfeng's own ability.

Duan Jianfeng plucked up the courage and took a peek at the data report in Cheng Zhiyu's hand: "Teacher Cheng, are you observing the situation of chromosomes 9 and 22?"

Cheng Zhiyu glanced at Lin Zitai, asked for permission, and handed him the data report in his hand: "Tell me, what did you see from above?"

Duan Jianfeng flipped through the information, with shock on his face. He turned the pages faster and faster: "Teacher, is this true? Numbers 9 and 22 are actually repairing themselves. Are these really the body data of the same person? ?”

The 23 pairs of chromosomes in the human body represent any possible combination of human genes. They are as mysterious and unpredictable as the neurons in the human brain, but they are more practical.

Because during World War II, many countries spent a lot of money to develop genetic warriors. They succeeded, but they also failed.

Gene warriors created through genetic recombination can burst into power several times stronger than usual in a short period of time.

But after the outbreak, it died out. Artificial genetic recombination caused human body incompatibility and genetic collapse.

At that time, scientists tried to repair the chromosomes, but no matter what method they used, the altered genes could not be repaired, or even delay the collapse of the genes.

He could only watch helplessly as the test subject's genes collapsed, various recessive diseases broke out in his body, and he was eventually tortured to death by the disease.

It is the current academic consensus that chromosomes cannot be repaired, at least not with current scientific and technological means.

However, he saw that chromosomes 9 and 22 were repairing themselves in the past two months.

Once this report is confirmed and circulated, not only will the entire academic world be shaken, but even high-level officials in various countries will pay attention to it.

Because chromosomes 9 and 22 can repair themselves, the gene representing the X chromosome, code-named MAOA, can also be repaired as long as the right method is found.

Gene warriors without side effects are no longer an idea.

Lin Zitai smiled and asked, "How is it?"

“The foundation is pretty solid, so I’ll stay here in the future.”

Cheng Zhiyu rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Long Hao and Jia Wei have been busy helping you improve your magic power recently, and I also lack an assistant."

Lin Zitai put his arm around Duan Jianfeng's shoulders and took out a confidential document from the drawer: "Jianfeng, I know you have a lot of doubts now, just sign it, and you will know it then."

Cheng Zhiyu had told him before what it meant to repair chromosomes, and he understood the seriousness of the matter.

Therefore, before bringing Duan Jianfeng here, and in the past two months or so, we had already thoroughly investigated the family background of three generations of his ancestors.

I don’t say that I’m very popular, but it’s pretty much the same. My grandfather is a veteran and my father is a civil servant. Apart from having contact with foreign teachers in college, I’ve basically never interacted with foreigners, so I can rule out the possibility of being a spy.

Now that Cheng Zhiyu also lacked assistants, Lin Zitai recommended him here, planning to train him well in the future and strive to become Cheng Zhiyu's successor.

Although in the face of this kind of thing, the binding force of confidential documents is basically equal to zero, but it is better than nothing.

Duan Jianfeng read the document quickly and signed his name without thinking.

Everyone who studies biology dreams that one day they can use their talents to change the world.Now that the opportunity to change the world was right in front of him, he had no reason to refuse.

Lin Zitai collected the documents and didn't explain much. He just asked him to follow Cheng Zhiyu from now on and help out.At the same time, he raised his eyes and looked at the surveillance camera in front of him: "Academician Cheng, has anyone recovered from the illness so far?"

It has been more than two months since the drug trial program was launched. According to Cheng Zhiyu's original inference, someone should have been cured.

"Nos. 7, 14, 33, as well as 53 and 58 are all suspected to be cured at the moment."

Cheng Zhiyu pulled out information about the relevant candidates. The first fifty were randomly selected from across the country, and the last ten were all blond foreigners. Lin Zitai walked in through the back door.

"I plan to stop their medication starting tomorrow and replace them with vitamin tablets to see if they relapse."

With the development of human science and technology so far, although it is said that it can land on the moon in nine days and catch turtles from all over the ocean, it still knows very little about the microscopic level of the human body.

Just like meridians in ancient times, they were considered a feudal superstition in the early years. Modern technology cannot detect the existence of meridians, but its role has been proven by a large number of clinical practices.

Genes are as mysterious as the meridians of the human body and the neurons of the human brain. It can only be observed through continuous experiments to confirm whether the repaired chromosomes will become diseased again.

Lin Zitai suddenly realized and looked at a picture on the surveillance screen. There were several people without masks, carrying photographic equipment, interviewing the patients in the ward: "They haven't gone out these days, have they?"

"No, everyone is very honest. They eat and live with the patients, and they don't hinder our trial plan."

Cheng Zhiyu paused and couldn't help but ask: "Zitai, have you really decided to announce this news?"

In just twenty days, the first phase of clinical trials is about to end, and countless people are eagerly waiting for their news.

However, now, the situation has obviously exceeded expectations. Once the outside world learns that the new slow-grain drug can repair chromosomes, some countries will definitely be ready to take action.

The genetic modification project that has been dormant for decades will definitely re-enter the world stage, even more radical than before.

Because it is a symbol of force. After all, poached eggs cannot be thrown away. It is very easy for all mankind to be buried with them.

Individual combat is still the mainstream in the world. If anyone can master a genetic army in advance, the world structure will even be rewritten.

"Academician Cheng, are you thinking too far, as if you are throwing something into a trap?"

Lin Zitai smiled nonchalantly. He was looking forward to a genetic medicine without side effects. If he only relied on them, he didn't know that it would have to wait until the end of the year before he could develop it independently.

Although he also knows that announcing the new slow-grain drug has the effect of repairing genes, it is like opening Pandora's box and will start a new arms race.

But he has a drug synthesis system and can always be one version ahead. If he is afraid of being surpassed, then he might as well buy a piece of tofu and get killed.

Cheng Zhiyu hesitated to speak, but did not continue to persuade, hoping that he was thinking too much.And he also hopes to witness the advent of a biological era in his lifetime.

Duan Jianfeng was confused, and Lin Zitai smiled: "Listen more, read more, and ask less. When it's time to know, you will naturally know."

"Academician Cheng, Classmate Duan will hang out with you from now on. I'll leave first if I have something else to do."

Lin Zitai left the monitoring room of the pharmaceutical company and went to the warehouse next door. A beautiful woman was looking at the door.

Feng Fanshu looked at Lin Zitai with resentment in his eyes. It was clear that the two of them agreed last time that they would wait for her to come to the Magic City next time to have a good chat and get to know each other more deeply.

However, on the first day she came to Magic City, she sent a message to Lin Zitai, but she has been ignored for more than two months.

Lin Zitai passed the security check at the door, was searched, and entered smoothly. He said in a sincere tone: "Ms. Feng, I'm very sorry. I've been busy with work recently and can't leave. I wonder if it's an honor to invite you to dinner tonight?"

If he hadn't been watching the surveillance screen just now and saw Feng Fanshu's figure, he would have almost forgotten that the beauty had an appointment.

Cheng Zhiyu had many things to think about, but he forgot one thing: whether it should be made public or not, it was not up to them.

Lin Zitai decided to sacrifice a little color if necessary to inquire about the current progress of the CCTV team.
