RNA

From the flu to HIV, RNA viruses challenge our immune systems like no other infectious agent on the planet. RNA viruses provide unique insights into the patterns and processes of evolutionary change in real time. The study of viral evolution is especially topical given the growing awareness that emerging and re-emerging diseases (most of which are caused by RNA viruses) represent a major threat to public health. How do RNA viruses adapt and change, and how do our bodies respond? Why are...

Biological organization is discussed within a holistic framework . A new orientation is presented of natural processes with an approach in model construction that is focused strictly on physical form and centered away from abstractions that escape the perceptual senses, lead towards the postulation of non-verifiable and non-witnessible entities. A universal construction composed of first perspective representations of path, witness as unique loci in volumes of space delineated as surfaces...

Visual method for representing five DNA and RNA bases U C A G T with five discrete values on the gray-scale: black (100%), dark (75%), gray(50%), light (25%) and white(0%) www.visualDNA.org This animation illustrates a proposal to replace the nucleic bases letter representation with five discrete values on the gray scale. Instead of letters UCAGT this concept employs five discrete values U=Black, C= Dark, A=Gray, G=light, and T= White. Value of "black" is defined as "absence of light", thus...

Visual method for representing five DNA and RNA bases U C A G T with five discrete values on the gray-scale: Black (Uracil)-100%black, Dark(Cytosine) 75%, Gray(Adenine)-50%, Light(Guanine) -25% and White(Thymine) - 0% www.visualDNA.org Icon is a visual 3x4 matrix consisting of four codons (12 same or different bases). Special cases are icons with equal numbers of the two bases (for example 6xG and 6xC). In these cases an icon has high organization if bases C ocupies one its halves and G...

The world is discussed and framed so that it does not evolve divisions alike the conceptual division between Special and General Relativity in which emerged divides are suggested to be parallel to and emerged from paradoxes of mind-matter, the self and nature. Of all of the potential properties of the unique Universe, emergence, affinity, self avoidance , etc., self belonging is never a characteristic of unique and energy metabolizing spaces/entities. A list of sets of unique things can...

A reinterpretation of biological process, evolution and genetics, the physical world is presented that integrates a re-examination of meaning in Einsteins relativity, involves a visit to Euclids parallel postulate, and the mathematics and geometry of the mobius strip. An entity, the concept, mass-less, unwitnessible with both energy and location is proposed to exist within a scheme of energized mobius parallels that extend beyond the plane of writing paper. And are employed to account...
