Sikwazile isikhathi esithile ukuthi ku- Microsoft abanesifiso sokuthola izindlela ezintsha zokugcina idatha yedijithali, kulokhu futhi ngenxa yokusebenzisana okusungulwe ne University of Washington, ukwazile ukuqhubeka nokubeka irekhodi elisha lokugcinwa kwedatha yedijithali ku-DNA. Ngokuqondile futhi ngokwemiphumela ethuliwe, abacwaningi bazuzile encode futhi unqume u-200 MB kumucu wesakhi sofuzo bese uzigcina kuthubhu yokuhlola.
Isithombe ongasibona esibukweni yiyona kanye ithubhu yokuhlola lapho i-DNA elashwa khona igcinwe khona. Esithombeni esifanayo kukhona ipensela ngenhloso eyodwa yokuthi noma ngubani obona isithombe uyakwazisa usayizi omncane wale sethi yezakhi zofuzo. Ngokuningiliziwe, ngikutshele ukuthi kulawo ma-200 MB alikho nje noma yiliphi ifayela, kepha abacwaningi bakubhalile futhi bakukhipha okungaphansi kwe Isimemezelo Somhlaba Wonke Samalungelo Abantu ngezilimi ezingaphezu kwekhulu, Izincwadi ezihamba phambili eziyi-100 zeProjekthi Gutenberg, i-database encane, kanye nevidiyo yomculo yeqembu i-OK Go!
IMicrosoft ilindele ukuthi ikwazi ukugcina isiguli esifinyelela ku-1.000 billion ku-gramu eyodwa ye-DNA
Ngokusho kwezitatimende ezenziwe ngu UKarin Strauss, umholi wephrojekthi:
Sinesifiso sokuthola ukuthi singakwazi yini ukudala uhlelo lokuphela kokuphela olususelwa kwi-DNA ekwazi ukugcina idatha, ezenzakalelayo futhi engasetshenziswa yizinkampani.
Izidingo zokugcina idatha zikhula njalo, ngenxa yalokhu, akumangazi ukuthi amaqembu amaningana ososayensi ayafunda izindlela ezintsha zokugcina idatha yedijithali. Enye yalezi yi-DNA, izinto zofuzo ezingaba ukusekelwa okuhle ngoba kungenzeka ukuthi kubhalwe kuma-molecule ane- ukuhlushwa okuphezulu kunobuchwepheshe obujwayelekile bokugcina.
Okwamanje, abacwaningi nososayensi abavela kuzo zombili izinhlangano banethemba lokuqhubeka nokuthuthuka ekufundeni kwabo nasekuthuthukiseni ubuchwepheshe obubavumela, ngokusho kweMicrosoft, ukugcina 1.000 billion ama-terabyte wedatha kugramu eyodwa ye-DNA.
