	I have a question and probably you know how to answer it.
	Supose I have two complementar DNA segments (both make one 
complete strand), and both are translated into RNAm (messenger RNA).
This way, we will obtain two diferent RNAm (indeed complementar to each
other). Are they going to codify two diferent proteins ? Or is there any
way of expressing only one ? In that case, which one ?
	I know, to be this much ignorant is a sin, but God is all forgiving.
