quantum biology?

The same guy who wrote about sound being faster than light (see previous post) keeps this blog on ZDNet.com, and it's pretty cool stuff. Like this article about quantum biology and nanoswitches.

Basically, the concept involves using self-splicing proteins (not transcripts), but the splicing event can be tightly controlled. Sounds kind of like a zymogen, really...except I guess this is more complicated than just a hydrolytic cleavage.
