Human evolution, characterized by our ability to process information, is fundamentally entwined with technological development. Complex tools and technologies are an integral part of our evolutionary "fitness." Genes that are not able to cope with this reality will not survive the next millennium. Its no accident that off-spring resemble their parents. Our genetic inheritance is locked in a special chemical, called deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA, located within each cell nucleus. DNA controls inheritance in a very orderly way. Under the microscope DNA looks like a mass of tangled threads. But these threads consist of tiny subunits called genes. Genes carry instructions, sometimes called the blueprint of life, for such things as eye colour and body size. We receive our genes from both mother and father, half from each. Genes instruct our bodies to make proteins - the workhorse molecules ordering the shape and function of each cell. Each gene controls the production of a particular protein. Genes program millions of different proteins through arrangements of just four simple molecules - adenine, cytosine, thymine, and guanine. These A,C,T and G's are like letters of the alphabet - their order "spells" out the language of life. The term "biotechnology" is often used to refer to the techniques of recombinant DNA. But what does recombinant DNA really mean? This term simply refers to the transfer of a gene from one organism into another organism, literally DNA from different sources that has been recombined. This recombinant DNA is essential for the redesign of the body for specific, goal-oriented tasks that better complement its interface with technology within the real space of production. Human characteristics must also be rationally designed and engineered in order to eliminate body functions and psychological characteristics that refuse ideological inscription.
