New Paper Examines How the Complexity of Glycan Structures Points to Intelligent Design
“This is, of course, important in order for a kidney cell to be and function as a kidney cell, a nerve cell to function as a nerve cell, and so forth.”
Sense of Touch Is More Finely Tuned than We Thought
Like machines that deliver goods or open doors at the push of a button, mechanosensitive channels respond on contact.
Getting It Together: Tethers, Handshakes, and Multitaskers in the Cell
Running a cell requires coordination. How do molecules moving in the dark interior of a cell know how and when to connect? Protein tethers offer new clues.
Understanding the Biochemistry — and Intelligent Design — of Muscle Contraction
Muscle contraction, which we so easily take for granted, is an incredibly complex and elegant process.
Cell Vesicles Wear Sophisticated Coats, Defying Unguided Evolutionary Explanations
These coats, and the accessory proteins that build them, attach them to vesicles, and disassemble them, exhibit irreducible complexity.
