DNA donation?

[Suetheramble]

If I give DNA is this sufficient information to donate organs?

No. A great deal of other information is required. You''ll also have to undergo screening.

Interesting q
is this theoretical ?

of curse the DNA you have given should be enough to codefor every protein expressed
and so the theoretical answer involving (is the Crick Hypothesis?) Dna only going one way whould be yes.

Lejeune was the first one 1959 to put a frog liver nucleus into an irradiated frog spawn
and to everyone's amazement he didnt get frog liver as expected but a whole frog !

However it became obvious that that wasnt the whole answer:

Jerne in 1979 calculated that it was possible that one held all the DNA possibilities for all possible antibodies you are going to express (ie that it need never be instrucitonal) because you only need to frizz around with the bit of the antibody called hypervariable - and you only need a thousand variations, and since you have two chromosomes involved this would give rise to a million variational pairs and that was quite enough for your lifetimes worth of antibodies.

.....but it involves DNA rearrangement in the lymphocyte


So this is the long answer to if I give DNA is this sufficient info to donate:
it should be and it isnt
