Spider Silk Not Yet Synthesized

Silk is not sourced from a plant. It is produced by the domesticated silk moth. Another silk with strength greater than steel is made by spiders. Many kinds of spiders can do the special trick.  There are plenty to study. If we could just imitate the strong silk, ultra-tough cables and ropes could be created. Better sutures for wounds, lightweight clothing and lighter suitcase would also be possible.  It would be a revolution.  Even solid panels could be on the cards. Spiders cannot be used in mass production. They make a little bit of silk in a large area. Not only that, but spiders tend to eat each other.  There are reasons why lab creation of "spider" silk has not been achieved. The DNA of the strong stuff has not been fully identified. Furthermore, properties are determined by the environment. The way spiders spin cannot be duplicated. It is complex. We need to develop a virtual robotized clone of a spider for mass production. Not something that is

New Life From Six-Letter Genetic Code

Beware, science is going down unexplored roads. Bacteria that are semi-synthetic are being created with a six-letter genetic code. New forms of life useful to Man could be on offer.  Hopefully, they will be used in medical treatment. "Normal" life has a base of four letters. Escherichia coli is a bacteria which has a synthetic pair of X and Y blended into it. The six bases stay together despite not conforming to the usual ruling double helix model. The E. coli was manipulated to more readily take the pair into its DNA. Also the Y base was made easier for the searching enzymes to find. Bacteria that resisted the pair were selected out to create an ideal "host" E.coli . We are a long way from having practical helper organisms. Maybe ten years down the track there will something we can use. Until then it will remain a dream.
