Redirect

Hi Chris,

good luck with this topic! The best I can do now is to create a redirect from intervening sequence. Pierre-Alain Gouanvic 22:10, 9 January 2008 (CST)

Hi Chris

I was curious about what "introns" were so I did a quick literature search, and added stuff to a sandbox page here: User talk:Thomas Wright Sulcer/sandbox7. I found I couldn't understand the heavy-duty stuff in the scientific articles, but could understand the basics when reporters (knowledgeable about science) translated it for me in places like the NY Times and Washington Post. I worked quickly and don't know if it's how you're wanting to take this article, but feel free to use the material if its helpful. --Thomas Wright Sulcer 05:16, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
