The Usurper Molecule

a: Dna ~
b: some priest

What: "I'd say DNA is like some priest who long ago usurped the the Book of Life, from RNA, but RNA *wrote* the book originally, and still fills far more essential functions than DNA does. DNA just sits in its nucleus and "reflects". A cell lives MUCH longer if you block its DNA function than if you block its RNA functions (and that's no guess: we have chemicals that can selectively block either one)"
