      my guess is none although it would be weird if idk some invert engineered autotroph escaped and somehow started competing with R-DNA autotrophs and outcompeted them because nothing would eat them and oh shit now we die I guess?https://twitter.com/__frye/status/1420968621732339715?s=19 …

      Any chance this can be used to make gain of function / prion / other dangerous bio research in a safer?

      im inclined to extend benefit of the doubt here because theyre claiming (i) to have actually built something that (ii) doesnt contravene laws of physics as they currently exist and (iii) has no obvious political valence but yes who knows it may be trash https://twitter.com/edibleflowerga1/status/1420964967981928448?s=19 …

      if we make mirror trees that build their bodies with mirror lignin we can kick start a second Carboniferous

      gonna pat myself on the back for apparently independently deriving a standard view of the ecological dangers of mirror life so yes if mirror cyanobacteria escaped from a lab we would probably all die fortunately biology labs are proven extremely securehttps://twitter.com/prawncis/status/1420982623048925187?s=19 …

      an upside of a mirror cyanobacteria escape and population explosion would be that huge quantities of CO2 would be extracted from the atmosphere, solving global warning apart from the mass extinction of R-DNA life there may other minor side effectshttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Oxidation_Event …

      I’m confused, how would this be more efficient than just using regular algae or regular trees?

      Replying to @GabGarrett

      in the case of mirror cyanobacteria they might outcompete normal cyanobacteria because there's not really anything that can prey on them in the case of mirror trees, they would be made of mirror lignin, and this would basically never decompose

      lignin is very difficult to digest for bacteria and fungus for boring reasons. a real killer biotechnology for plants. the first time it evolved it took many millions of years for decomposing organisms to figure out how to digest it and so trees just didnt rot after dying

          this was the cause of most coal deposits in the world. just huge quantities of dead trees that didn't rot and eventually were transformed by geological processes into coal once large quantities caught fire at once and caused the largest mass extinction in history
