A little wonder, every day
Digital data can be encoded in DNA

In 2012, researchers encoded a 5.27-megabit digital stream in synthetic DNA, including book text, images and a program, then read it by sequencing. “700 terabytes per gram” should not be presented as a fixed limit or the actual file size written in that experiment: capacity depends on encoding, redundant copies and the accounting method.
