Encryption of a message in the Bacillus subtilis genome. An encryption key used to encode the message in DNA and decode it back.

 

The message “E=mc∧2 1905!”, including the “shift” and “space” keys, was converted into hexadecimal code (separated by %) according to the Keyboard Scan Code (Set2). The binary code was then produced by four-bit representation of each hexadecimal number.
