Sustained Fast Rates of Evolution Explain Exactly How Tetrapods Advanced From Fish

Biology, Evolution, Science /

One of the most critical questions in evolution is how and when significant groups of animals first evolved. The surge of tetrapods (all limbed vertebrates) from their fish relatives notes one of the most important evolutionary landmarks in the history of life. This “fish-to-tetrapod” shift occurred someplace in between the Middle and Late Devonian (approximately […]

“Inescapable” COVID-19 Antibody Discovery – Neutralizes All Known SARS-CoV-2 Strains

Biology, Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, Science /

An antibody treatment that seems to reduce the effects of all recognized SARS-CoV-2 pressures and various other coronaviruses was created with some help from architectural biologist Jay Nix. Lifesaving COVID-19 injections are enabling us to feel optimistic once again, after over a year of anxiousness as well as disaster. However, vaccines are just one side

New Study Helps Explain the Diversity of Life and “Paradox of Sex”

Biology, Evolution, Science /

There are significant differences in species numbers among the major branches of the tree of life. Some groups of organisms have numerous species, while others have some. For example, animals, plants, and fungi each have more than 100,000 known species, how most of the others– such as many algal and bacterial groups– have 10,000 or

MIT Researchers Devised a Means to Program Memories Into Microbial Cells by Revising Their DNA

Applied Science, Cell Biology, Genetics, Microbiology, Science /

Organic engineers at MIT have created a brand-new way to edit bacterial genomes successfully and program memories right into microbial cells by revising their DNA. Using this technique, various spatial and temporal information can be stored for generations and obtained by sequencing the cells’ DNA. The new DNA writing method, which the scientists call HiSCRIBE,

Calling Through the DNA Cord: A Recently Discovered Genetic “Switch Over.”

Biology, Genetics, Science /

According to the Weizmann Institute of Scientific scientists, proteins can connect through DNA, performing a long-distance dialogue that functions as a type of genetic “switch.” They discovered that the binding of proteins to one point of a DNA molecule could affect an additional binding point at a further point. This “peer impact” triggers particular genes.

Genetically Modified Trees are Seen as a Solution by These Scientists to Absorb Excess Carbon in the World

Biology, Earth Science, Environmental Science, Genetics, Science /

In grade school, Charles DeLisi had his first indication of changes in the environment. He lived in a very wooded area, with trees filling his neighborhood, which was very fortunate since he loved to play in the forest. However, one of the saddest events of his adolescence, as he describes, occurred around the time he

Neurotransmitter Levels in the Brain Can Predict Math Ability

Applied Science, Cell Biology, Neuroscience, Science /

The neurotransmitters GABA and glutamate have complementary functions – GABA inhibits neurons, while glutamate makes them extra active. Published on July 22nd, 2021, in PLOS Biology, scientists led by Roi Cohen Kadosh and George Zacharopoulos from the University of Oxford revealed that degrees of these two neurotransmitters in the intraparietal sulcus of the brain could

Rare Upper Paleolithic Human Remains Found at the Cova Gran de Santa Linya Site

Archaeology, Biology, Evolution, Forensics, Science /

At the Cova Gran de Santa Linya site (La Noguera, Lleida), the remains of a female attributed to H. sapiens were discovered by scientists of the Centro Nacional de Investigación Sobre la Evolución Humana (CENIEH). The carbon-14 record of the sediments in the natural vessel where her remains were discovered shows that she lived in

The Future of Medicine: New Invention Produces More Pure RNA at a Fraction of the Cost

Biology, Molecular Biology, Science /

Recently, researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst revealed their discovery of a new RNA production process. The RNA resulting from this process is purer, more copious, and probably more economical than any other process currently in existence. This new technique removes the most significant hurdle on the path to next-generation RNA therapeutic drugs. If
