Although ubiquitously thought of as a simple string of letters, DNA exhibits complex physicochemical properties. As a result, DNA can store information beyond the extensively studied explicit genetic message. The mechanical code of DNA has not been studied systematically in a genome-wide context until recent groundbreaking work by Basu et al.

不仅仅是字母和化学：基因组学走向力学

尽管人们普遍认为 DNA 是一串简单的字母，但 DNA 表现出复杂的物理化学特性。因此，DNA 可以存储超出广泛研究的显式遗传信息的信息。在 Basu等人最近的开创性工作之前，尚未在全基因组范围内系统地研究 DNA 的机械代码。
