Which leads to the question: how do nanobacteria copy
themselves? Evidence for self-replicating nanoparticles has been around for years in everything from oil wells to heart disease, but failure to sequence them using regular PCR led some to dismiss them as contamination or mistakes. However, researchers have found characteristics that make the particles hard to explain away.
They replicate on their own, so are not viruses. They resist high-level radiation,which suggests they are not bacteria.
They respond well to light, where nonliving crystals don't. So if they aren't viruses, regular bacteria or crystals,
what are they?
Some supporters of standardised 16S rRNA tests are quick to discount nanobacteria. That's not surprising. If a
novel nucleic sequence holds true with other extremophiles as with N. equitans,then a machine that searches for life
using standard PCR tests might miss them and be obsolete. Conscious of this, the PCR machine team has said that as part of their work, they plan to "search for the boundaries" of the 16S sequences, but what exactly that means and how they plan to overcome the problem hasn't been set out yet.

s'il s'avère que d'autres extrêmophiles que N.E présentent une séquence nucléique inédite ? merci !
