How Do Mitotic Errors Affect Cell Proliferation?
This review furthers the argument that I have developed elsewhere that the eukaryotic cell division cycle is elegantly engineered and irreducibly complex.
Brain Imaging Shows Intelligence Uses the Whole Brain
A focus on specific regions like the prefrontal cortex can mislead. When we are thinking, we use brain-wide connections between many parts of the brain at once.
Engineered Elegance: Generating the Wait Anaphase Signal
Even a single unattached kinetochore is sufficient to trigger the wait anaphase signal, which inhibits activation of the APC/C that drives entry into anaphase.
Same-Handed Molecules Are an “Overarching Design Principle” in Life, Say Researchers
Without foresight to solve heterochiral incidents, a primordial cell would quickly perish even if, against all odds, it began homochiral.
Behe: Magnetotactic Bacteria and Other Micro-Wonders
These bugs could point the way to a treatment for cancerous tumors, thanks to their natural ability to maneuver by sensing the Earth’s magnetic field.
