Mitochondria Promoted to Information Processing Systems
The label “powerhouses of the cell” was too simplistic for the many tasks performed every second by these computing, networking, signaling, regulating wonders.
Epigenetics Directs Genetics — And That’s a Problem for Darwinism
The ability to sequence genomes was a great accomplishment. But there is something over and above genes.
Grand Central Station and Beyond: Molecular Machines Visualized in 3-D
Cryo-electron microscopy is allowing cell biologists to see irreducibly complex molecular machines in three-dimensional glory.
Non-Mendelian Inheritance Undermines Neo-Darwinism
Neo-Darwinians breathed a sigh of relief when in the 1930s they found a way to incorporate Mendel’s laws of heredity. Now, that relief is unraveling.
Cilium and Intraflagellar Transport: More Irreducibly Complex than Ever
Another of Michael Behe’s molecular machines gets an update. The details are even more fascinating than originally described.
