And so an interesting idea is, what if you could take any material that you wanted, or any element on the periodic table, and find its corresponding DNA sequence, then code it for a corresponding protein sequence to build a structure, but not build an abalone shell -- build something that, through nature, it has never had the opportunity to work with yet.
一个有意思的想法是，如果你能选择任何材料或是 周期表中的任何元素， 依照DNA序列， 然后依照蛋白质序列 建立结构，但不是构建一个鲍鱼壳，将会怎样 -- 通过自然构建某种事物， 这是从未有机会进行的尝试。
