modern black arts (as via Crispr) to make human cells produce toxins, for example, or to block cells’ abilities to carry out routine tasks Jul 29, 2019 Biotechnologies like Crispr have the possibilities of dangerous applications which might turn our biological machinery against us.  The latest biotech investment craze runs on excitement over Crispr, a technique for making gene-editing easier and more precise, which biologists have already used to remove disease-causing genes from human embryos and slow the growth of cancer cells. Although a study published last month raised the possibility that the technology might also cause cancer in human cells, experts think this problem is probably only a speed bump on the road to a medical revolution. More worrying is what Crispr and related new biotechnologies might do for the engineering of new bioweapons. A report by a committee of the National Academy of Sciences suggests that finding effective countermeasures won’t be easy and details a list of hair-raising possibilities for how the new technology could turn our biological machinery against us. Important Crispr-driven research appears every week. Late last month, for example, researchers reported using the technique to greatly speed up the engineering of genetically-altered mice that develop human-like diseases and so make medical research easier. Crispr works by adapting sophisticated DNA editing machinery that occurs naturally in bacteria. Using it, biologists can disable or repair a gene, insert entirely new genetic material in precise positions or even edit genetic material one nucleotide at a time. With both precision and ease of use of course comes proliferation. The first thing Crispr will make possible for a would-be bioterrorist is re-creating known pathogens, either viruses or bacteria, samples of which are tightly controlled. It’s increasingly possible to engineer the construction of some organisms from scratch, using only their genomic data. Crispr will allow faster engineering by people with fewer skills. The report suggests that it’s now possible to build the genome of essentially any existing virus using data on DNA sequences available in public libraries. Actually making the organism involves a second step known as “booting,” but this has also been achieved for many viruses. Hence it’s probably only a matter of time before small groups using off-the-shelf laboratory equipment will be able to recreate a range of dangerous pathogens just from DNA sequences. Steps to counter their use will be more or less identical for natural pathogens, including intelligence, ready availability of vaccines and antivirals, and well-organized public health measures. But this is the easy-to-imagine threat, and it may ultimately be less significant than a spectrum of advanced bioweapons of a totally new kind. Any living cell is a miniature factory for producing diverse biochemicals with specific roles, and a bioweapons designer might aim to introduce biochemicals that effectively re-program the cellular factory – to make human cells produce toxins, for example, or to block cells’ abilities to carry out routine tasks. Since the Human Microbiome Project we’ve understood that human health depends on a thriving ecosystem of up to 1,000 species of gut bacteria, and researchers have already demonstrated the ability to manipulate some human gut microbes. Since the microbiome appears to play a key role in human immunity, disrupting its function could undermine a population’s capacity to defend against disease. A step further, researchers speculate, and it may also be possible to modify the human immune system or even the genome itself. None of this is possible yet, thank goodness, but the technology is accelerating through a convergence of many new capabilities. Genetic engineering is no longer laborious but happens along an efficient cycle of designing, building and testing a prototype, learning its flaws and adapting to an improved design. Advances come ever more quickly due to computers, lab automation and cheap DNA synthesis and sequencing technologies. Protecting ourselves is going to require far-ranging security policies and, probably more importantly, intense efforts on researching countermeasures based on the same new biotechnologies. The very existence of this report may spur other nations to invest more in R&D to counter capabilities they may assume the U.S. already has or will soon have. Bioweapons actually have a long history of use, from hurling plague-infested corpses over defensive walls in the middle ages through Japan using plague, anthrax and other diseases in World War II. What’s comes next looks certain to take everything to a new and less predictable level. -Bloomberg https://theprint.in › science › how-gene-editing-cures-m... ……….. Engineering of Brome mosaic virus for biomedical applications https://pubs.rsc.org › content › articlelanding Abstract Viral nanoparticles (VNPs) are becoming versatile tools in platform technology development. Their well-defined structures as well as their programmability through chemical and genetic modification allow VNPs to be engineered for potential imaging and therapeutic applications. In this article we report the application of a variety of bioconjugation chemistries to the plant VNP Brome mosaic virus (BMV). Functional BMV nanoparticles displaying multiple copies of fluorescent dyes, PEG molecules, chemotherapeutic drug moieties, targeting proteins and cell penetrating peptides were formulated. This opens the door for the application of BMV in nanomedicine. https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2012/ra/c2ra01376b …………………………… Release of genetically modified viruses - Wiley Online Library https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com › pdf › rmv.1980010205 by JS Cory · 1991 · Any engineered virus is necessarily a clone. …………………………….. Beloved ones, you will understand: like wolves the fallen ones always move in packs and they understand, as coyotes understand, that their defense is in numbers. This ancient strategy of numbers, numbers, numbers has resulted in Nephilim creating thousands and millions of mechanization man to act as their instruments of their fiats of evil. There are not so many, truly, who are a part of absolute Evil, but there are many ‘counter-creations’ and clones that are the embodiment of the original force of Evil. Thus you will understand in your daily work for the Brotherhood that it is necessary to go after the original seed that has propagated many after itself. And once the original matrix is removed you begin to see the collapsing— almost as the deflating of a balloon—of the structure that is made after the original. By fiat of the Lord it is the removal of the cause and core of the blueprint itself—of the original endowment of sacred fire in one fallen angel—which when taken causes the collapse of the inner structure of the entire dragon or beast, as may be the case. You will therefore learn in this quarter (of inner instruction) how to be astute in dealing with world conditions, for El Morya and I are very much a part of all that is ongoing in the streets of life surrounding our youth and all that is taking place. We see far, far more than we would care to bring to your attention, for that which you do see and hear about is most assuredly sufficient and can well occupy you many, many hours a day in consideration thereof, in research thereon and in dynamic decrees.
