DNA Data Storage

DNA data storage is considered a promising alternative storage technology for many reasons. It offers high information density, 103-104x greater than the capacity of tape, and can store the world’s data in the size of a shoebox. Unlike conventional storage methods, as long as humans are interested in DNA, readers (DNA sequencers) will never be obsolete. Additionally, DNA can be extremely durable under the right conditions. Recently, a horse genome was sequenced from a fossil greater than 700,000 years old. Our experiments here will help us understand how radiation damages synthetic DNA and inform us on how to preserve DNA files.DNA数据存储（DNA data storage）因多方面优势被视作极具前景的替代性存储技术。其信息存储密度极高，可达磁带存储容量的10³至10⁴倍，仅需一个鞋盒大小即可容纳全球全部数据量。与传统存储方式不同，只要人类仍关注DNA相关技术，其读取设备（DNA测序仪，DNA sequencers）便永不会被淘汰。此外，在适宜环境条件下，DNA可具备极强的稳定性。近期已有研究从距今超过70万年的化石样本中成功测序得到马基因组。本研究中的相关实验，将有助于我们明晰辐射对合成DNA的损伤机制，并为DNA数据文件的保存策略提供参考依据。
