We might all live on after we die.Animal studies reveal that some genes work after 48 hrs after death.Hundreds of genes actually wake up after you stop breathing.Some of them are usevally active in developing fetus, while others have been linked to cancer. This could explain the high risk of cancer in recipients of liver transplants. The donar organs might have activated by cancer genes after death.We entered from stone age to clone age. Landing on moon is easier than entering inside the cell. DNA contains the genetic blue print of an individual. Preserving DNA gives an opportunity to capture the information and establish a connection that will last forever. DNA contains valuable information about our ancestral and family roots. When a person dies, it also vanishes. Now the DNA is preserved similar to that of blood bank.75 % of the genetic diseases can be known by DNA. It is easy for the doctor to know the treatment plans. The deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a reservoir of information in a cell and flow of information including genetic information from DNA to subsequent molecules including ribonucleic acid (RNA) and protein is referred as the central dogma.The transfer of information from nucleic acid to a nucleicid or from nucleic acid to protein may be possible but the transfer from protein to a protein or from protein to nucleic acid is impossible.
