For some three billion years, unicellular organisms ruled Earth. Then, around one billion years ago, a new chapter of life began

How did life get multicellular? Five simple organisms could have the answer
Single-celled species that often stick together in colonies have researchers rethinking the origin of animals.

Just some thoughts spiraling today...We have long regarded the cell as a discrete system — and rightly so, but what if that assumption is limiting? more akin to a Möbius strip of membranes and coexisting liquid phases?

So... Can be animals without #scutoids?
This a difficult question to answer, you cannot get mutants without scutoids.
So we designed a computational model to demonstrated that it is not possible to form epithelial tubes without apico-basal intercalations.

Genome sequencing & single-cell transcriptomics continue to produce findings that challenge the idea that #cancer is purely a genetic disease. This Essay delves into #omics data that questions the somatic mutation theory & presents alternative theories based on GRNs & tissue fields.🧪

Beyond known protein-coding genes, ribosomes are actively translating thousands of previously unrecognized dark proteins 🦹♀️🦹♂️🧟
👇👇👇👇
👇👇👇👇
"Dark proteins." Also known as microproteins. There are thousands of them in our cells and we're still struggling to define their function. Succinctly reviewed @nature.com www.nature.com/articles/d41...
‘Dark proteins’ hiding in our cells could hold clues to cancer and other diseases
The human genome encodes potentially thousands of tiny proteins that were previously overlooked. The search is on to find out what they do.
