Gene pinball

Are you a man or a mouse? In this pinball game, visitors play for one DNA sequence per game, with the sequence displayed on a screen in place of the usual points score. But which living creature does the genetic material belong to? Visitors can find out thanks to the automated feature that compares the DNA sequence with all the DNA sequences stored in an online genome database.
