[edit] Suggestion

Suggestion: Replace the nanotechnology link with one to the more-to-the-point less-hypey article on molecular assembler which uses only credible sources...

[edit] Chlorine life claim

Whilst updating myself (via Google) on the progress of last year's arsenic-based life debate I've stumbled upon several articles purporting that there is a type of E.Coli bacterium that has been bred to use a compound called 5-chlorouracil as opposed to thymine in their DNA.[1] I'm curious if someone with more technical expertise in the field could take a look at some of the literature on this phenomena and update the article? Thanks! --MarcZimmer (talk) 18:10, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

I should note the 2011 in science article has a brief mention of this as well. Here is a link to the paper: [2]. --MarcZimmer (talk) 18:13, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
