A Global Binary Interpretation of the Genome

Authors/Creators

Description

This paper proposes a hypothetical framework in which genomic information is interpreted as a global binary configuration rather than a collection of local, gene-level instructions. By mapping the nucleotide sequence (ATGC) onto a binary representation, the genome is treated as a single informational object whose biological meaning cannot be inferred from partial observation alone.

Unlike conventional gene-centric models, this approach does not assume that the genome contains an explicit blueprint describing a completed organism. Instead, organismal identity is considered to emerge from the total configuration of the sequence and its temporal evolution.

The framework is presented as a conceptual hypothesis rather than an empirically established model, and no claim is made regarding immediate experimental verification or practical application. Ethical and normative interpretations are intentionally avoided. The aim of this work is to provide an alternative perspective on biological identity, individuality, and genomic interpretation, emphasizing global structure over inductive local analysis.
