    I've been seeing loads of threads of people posting classy pictures and videos, and then watched Vonic's logo thing this morning. Made me think, "Damn, I wish I could make classy looking artistic things!".
    Sadly, I'm about as artsy as a concrete block, but while I may not be able to do art by christ can I do science.
    So, has anyone heard of a gaming group having their very own toxin?
    I branded the NNG logo in there and everything. It may be written in protein code but it's there!
    Internets to whoever can guess what it is by the way, only negligible mutations have been made to it, so it does closely resemble its parent structure.

    This one makes the protein vaguely resemble Ireland, classy huh? Totally not manipulated, I swear. (Asides from the mutations, but they make it unique).
    vaguely like Ireland.jpg
    The small brightly coloured red bit half way up the page spells NNG, cause it's a code of a asparagine, followed by asparagine and then glycine. As you all know this spells NNG, so there contributing!

    What follows are the prettier images, cause the ball and stick representation is freaking confusing.
    Apparently these need to be in following things, so they'll be in the comments.
    So tada, NNG now has a protein!

    Oh, and it may be silly if I provide no amino sequences or codons, so have a link (it's a txt file, the fanciest of all files).
    https://dl.dropbox.com/u/46054822/Instruction Manual
    That'll also detail the modifications needed to culture it but provides no organism or vector, cause that's all preference and shite at this stage.

    Yeah, this one is a hell of a lot nicer looking.

    Same thing, different angle, under the so-called publication scheme.

    Also I have no idea why in the fancy pictures the NNG bit looks disconnected, the bond was probably sacrificed to look nice, so yeah, art!

    Yes actually, but it will kill you if it gets into the bloodstream, fair warning.

    I want to 'like' this whole thread.

    So, at this level... are you doing biology, or chemistry? 'Cus I dunno whether to call you a biogeek, chemgeek. Or physgeek.

    That'd be biochemistry, it's a fancy combination of the two, and what does blessedsagan mean?
