Fluorescent Felines
This was on the Yahoo fluorescent minerals group today:
-
There was a report to-day from Associated Press about two cloned Turkish Angora cats that were modified with a gene that produces a fluorescent protein, that gives off a red fluorescent glow, as opposed to a normally cloned cat that glows green! Wave length used was not specified. This was done by some scientists in South Korea. They hope that this achievement offers hope in treating genetic ills in humans, by inserting other genes. This was done by scientists from Gyeongsang National University and Sunchon National University. I am being serious and it is not April Fool's day! Check you cats? A perfect gift for the fluorescent collector that has everything. This could lead to all sorts of jokes, most probably not suitable for this group.
