From base editing to RNA editing (2)

Summary: The link from the creation of the sun’s anti-entropic virucidal energy and the physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction to fixation of RNA-mediated amino acid substitutions in the organized genomes of all living genera is all that is required to claim adaptation for comparison to Koonin’s moronic assertion that the amino acid composition of proteins varies because the composition evolved.
Digital reconstruction of the Ceprano calvarium (Italy), and implications for its interpretation

A “fresh” (i.e., not yet “fossil”) bone can be plastically deformed before it breaks because it is still rich in collagen and because the calcium crystals that constitute large part of the bony matrix are not yet substituted by other minerals, as happens during the process of mineralization34. Such a diagenetic process may occur in environments that are rich in water, like a riverbed or a perilacustrine paleosol; the latter was probably the case in the Ceprano area5.

The virus-driven degradation of messenger RNA links the diagenetic process in living tissue links to the fossil record via changes that appear to have occurred during the past 5-10,000 years.
See for instance: MicroRNA-32 promotes calcification in vascular smooth muscle cells: Implications as a novel marker for coronary artery calcification
The increased level of calcification in smooth muscle cells, which is associated with increased rates of coronary artery calcification is a clear indicator that the proliferation of viruses in organized genomes causes the negative supercoiling of DNA, which serious scientists have linked to all pathology.

Case studies have no explanatory power outside the context of models that link electrons to ecosystems in all living genera. In this case study, it is clear that the pulmonary ossification and sudden death can be placed into the context of my model of nutritional epigenetics.
See: Nutrient-dependent pheromone-controlled ecological adaptations: from atoms to ecosystems

This atoms to ecosystems model of ecological adaptations links nutrient-dependent epigenetic effects on base pairs and amino acid substitutions to pheromone-controlled changes in the microRNA / messenger RNA balance and chromosomal rearrangements. The nutrient-dependent pheromone-controlled changes are required for the thermodynamic regulation of intracellular signaling, which enables biophysically constrained nutrient-dependent protein folding; experience-dependent receptor-mediated behaviors, and organism-level thermoregulation in ever-changing ecological niches and social niches. Nutrient-dependent pheromone-controlled ecological, social, neurogenic and socio-cognitive niche construction are manifested in increasing organismal complexity in species from microbes to man. Species diversity is a biologically-based nutrient-dependent morphological fact and species-specific pheromones control the physiology of reproduction. The reciprocal relationships of species-typical nutrient-dependent morphological and behavioral diversity are enabled by pheromone-controlled reproduction. Ecological variations and biophysically constrained natural selection of nutrients cause the behaviors that enable ecological adaptations. Species diversity is ecologically validated proof-of-concept. Ideas from population genetics, which exclude ecological factors, are integrated with an experimental evidence-based approach that establishes what is currently known. This is known: Olfactory/pheromonal input links food odors and social odors from the epigenetic landscape to the physical landscape of DNA in the organized genomes of species from microbes to man during their development.

Attempts to support theories about random mutations and evolution have failed miserably and have largely been replaced with facts about energy-dependent RNA-mediated cell type differentiation.
See: RNA Editing Possible with CRISPR-Cas13

The tool itself could be further developed, adds computational biologist Eugene Koonin of the National Center for Biotechnology Information who also was not involved in the study. “This paper is not the end of the road,” he says. It’s possible that Cas13b could be fused to a variety of editing enzymes that would allow a range of different sequence changes. The possibilities are numerous, Koonin says, and “the best is still to come.”

This paper is the end of the road for pseudoscientists and biologically uninformed theorists, like Eugene Koonin, who made this ridiculous claim in 2005:
Amino acid composition of proteins varies substantially between taxa and, thus, can evolve. –Jordan et al., (2005) A universal trend of amino acid gain and loss in protein evolution
See for comparison: The entire evolution of the microbial world and the virus world, and the interaction between microbes and viruses and other life forms have been left out of the Modern Synthesis… (2015) — Eugene Koonin
See also Koonin’s attack on all models of ecological adaptation: Splendor and misery of adaptation, or the importance of neutral null for understanding evolution (2016)

…population genetic theory, combined with the data of comparative genomics, clearly indicates that such a “pan-adaptationist” approach is a fallacy. The proper question is: how has this sequence evolved? And the proper null hypothesis posits that it is a result of neutral evolution: that is, it survives by sheer chance provided that it is not deleterious enough to be efficiently purged by purifying selection. To claim adaptation, the neutral null has to be falsified.

The link from the creation of the sun’s anti-entropic virucidal energy and the physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction to fixation of RNA-mediated amino acid substitutions in the organized genomes of all living genera is all that is required to claim adaptation for comparison to Koonin’s moronic assertion that the amino acid composition of proteins varies because the composition evolved.
Each time a new claim attests to the facts about energy-dependent RNA-mediated biophysically constrained cause and effect, remember how long those facts have been placed on hold by people like Eugene Koonin and Jay R. Fiereman, who is the moderator of the International Society for Human Ethology’s Yahoo Group.
See this attempt to discuss mysterious DNA changes with Jay R. Feierman who on 7/25/13 wrote:

Variation is not nutrient availability and the something that is doing the selecting is not the individual organism. A feature of an educated person is to realize what they do not know. Sadly, you don’t know that you have an incorrect understanding [of] Darwinian biological evolution.

All DNA modifications are energy-dependent and RNA-mediated. Publications in Science and Nature attest to the foolishness of those who have tried to link base editing and RNA editing to human cell type differentiation without starting with the fact that RNA-mediated amino acid substitutions are food energy-dependent.
Clearly there are no mysterious stress-linked DNA modifications. Nutrient stress and/or social stress cause the proliferation of viruses. Typically the proliferation of viruses is biophysically constrained by food energy and the pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction in species from microbes to humans.
See “Cytosis” for the game-ending details that placed the nonsense about neutral null falsification back into the historical perspective of the “Dark Ages.”

Evidence for beneficial mutations

We sought to understand what proportion of the genomic changes in the non-mutator populations was adaptive, and how that proportion changed over time. One line of evidence derives from the expectation that synonymous substitutions—point mutations in protein-coding genes that do not affect the amino-acid sequence—are neutral and should therefore accumulate at a rate equal to the underlying mutation rate20,35. This expectation is not strictly true owing to selection on codon usage, RNA folding, and other effects, but it is generally thought that such selection is extremely weak, affects only a small fraction of sites at risk for synonymous mutations, or both 36,37.

RNA-mediated protein folding chemistry is biophysically constrained. It is nutrient energy-dependent and biodiversity is controlled by the energy-dependent physiology of reproduction. In 2015, Lenski’s group admitted to their lie about the beneficial mutations, with the claim “This expectation is not strictly true owing to selection on codon usage…”
No beneficial mutations have been found by serious scientists. But Lenski’s group clearly indicated they would continue to lie about all aspects of energy-dependent biodiversity. They hoped to make it appear that all energy-dependent biodiversity emerged and then automagically evolved. If they could do that, they knew that their idiot minions were not likely to examine selection for energy-dependent codon usage. But then,
See for comparison: The dynamics of molecular evolution over 60,000 generations
After 10,000 more generations, Lenski’s group reported that standard models of mutation-driven evolution has not been supported by their experimental evidence. Instead, they placed their results into the context of natural selection for energy-dependent codon usage and long-term adaptation, which obviously occurred outside the context of mutation–selection balance and neutral mutation accumulation.
They clearly indicated that the complexity of ecological variation and energy-dependent ecological adaptation must be considered before reporting anything in the context of natural genetic variation. Simply put, they refuted all the pseudoscientific nonsense their past claims caused to be touted by other biologically uninformed theorists. They reported that ecological adaptation occurs outside the context of the mutations and evolution.
But see: Molecular evolution: No escape from the tangled bank

Ecological interactions emerge spontaneously in an experimental study of bacterial populations cultured for 60,000 generations, and sustain rapid evolution by natural selection.

The claim that there is no escape from the tangled bank is true. Joshua B. Plotkin took Lenki’s group’s refutation of mutation-driven evolution and placed it back into the context of the spontaneous emergence of energy-dependent ecological interactions. And then, he again touted the nonsense about evolution by natural selection.
See also: Rapid and Inexpensive Evaluation of Nonstandard Amino Acid Incorporation in Escherichia coli (2017)

…we developed a toolkit for characterizing any Escherichia coli OTS that reassigns the amber stop codon (TAG). It assesses OTS performance by comparing how the fluorescence of strains carrying plasmids encoding a fused RFP-GFP reading frame, either with or without an intervening TAG codon, depends on the presence of the nsAA. We used this kit to (1) examine nsAA incorporation by seven different OTSs, (2) optimize nsAA concentration in growth media, (3) define the polyspecificity of an OTS, and (4) characterize evolved variants of amberless E. coli with improved growth rates.

Even with the tools available, which have refuted all ridiculous theories of mutation-driven evolution, the claims that variants “evolved” continues to plague all serious scientists. It seems that placing the claims that variants evolved into the context of natural selection for energy-dependent codon optimality and the physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction in all living genera serves no purpose. However, even if biologically uninformed science idiots are not willing to admit that top-down causation requires first consideration for the energy source, there is hope for the future. Most people intuitively understand that the food energy from what organisms eat must be linked to the metabolism of food and the metabolism of food to species-specific pheromones is the only known link from the physiology of reproduction to all biophysically constrained biodiversity in the context of viral latency.
Epigenetic effects must be linked to affects on behavior and the difference between an effect on hormones and an affect of hormones on behavior must be considered in the context of how food odors and pheromones are linked to the physiology of human reproduction by serious scientists.

Long-term adaptation replaces evolution (3)

Summary: Koonin thinks that serious scientists who have linked the creation of energy to all biodiversity via the physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction in species from microbes to humans must prove that everything the serious scientists know did not occur randomly after the sun’s anti-entropic virucidal energy emerged from nothing.
Other pseudoscientists have taken a step towards refuting Koonin’s moronic claim with publication of:
A mammalian blood odor component serves as an approach-avoidance cue across phylum border – from flies to humans

Feedback loops link odor and pheromone signaling with reproduction

The odor of E2D is sufficient to elicit approach response in blood-seeking animals. (A) Chemical structure of trans-4,5-epoxy-(E)-2-decenal (E2D). (B) Schematic drawing of the Y maze olfactory assay used for the fly behavioral experiment. (C) Mean percentage of flies choosing between E2D in a background of host odor and host odor only (left) and between E2D and cattle blood both in a host background. (D) A wolf displaying biting on the scented log, one of the eleven behaviors present in the ethogram. (E) Mean total number of interactions during a session with the four odor stimuli for the wolf pack. Error bars indicate standard error of the mean (SEM). *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001.

Conclusion:

Taken together, our results strongly suggest that E2D is a blood signature substance that serves as an approach-avoidance cue across phylum borders; it elicits approach responses in blood-feeding invertebrates as well as in mammalian predators, while eliciting avoidance behavior in mammalian prey species. These results demonstrate the existence of a cross-species food- and alarm cue that affects behavior in both human and non-human animals alike.

Reported as: A universal food and alarm cue found in mammalian blood

The omnipresent adaptation to E2D indicates that the selection pressure for this chemical cue is preserved through evolution. This can shed light on human evolution, our formation as a species. “Our finding in humans fits in with the paleontological data showing that early primates were small-bodied insectivores. There is no question that humans are opportunistic predators, but we probably evolved from a prey species and some aspects of this trait lingers on,” says principal investigator Johan Lundström, associate professor at the Karolinska Institutet in Sweden.

Ecological variations are linked to ecological adaptations via what is known to serious scientists about quantum physics, which recently were placed into the context of observations that link electrons to ecosystems in all living genera via the 2017 Nobel Prize-winning cryo-EM technology. With the help of many others and also via my monographs and my presentations during the past 25 years this fact has become perfectly clear. The human ability to detect DNA differences in tissue type via the sense of smell is the link to biophysically constrained viral latency and all biodiversity.
There is no question that the passive-aggressive behavior of researchers like Johan Lundström is displayed as their failure to cite any of my published works.

Our ability to smell DNA arises only after the quantized energy-dependent creation of G protein-coupled receptors.
See also, from 1985: THE QUANTAL NATURE OF CONTROLLING STIMULUS-RESPONSE RELATIONS AS MEASURED IN TESTS OF STIMULUS GENERALIZATION

…the quantal interpretation, proposes that a stimulus-response relation functions as a unit that may or may not occur. From the latter viewpoint, the continuity typically obtained during generalization tests is deemed to be artifactual and to result from averaging across multiple controlling stimulus-response relations.

The “omnipresent adaptation to E2D” links multiple controlling stimulus-response relations from the energy-dependent de novo creation of G protein-coupled receptors to the foraging behavior of bacteria and to the physiology of pheromone-controlled human reproduction. Without the ability to sense differences in the fixation of amino acid substitutions in organized genomes DNA, biologically uninformed science idiots have no way to explain omnipresent pathology. Simply put, they have failed to link our choices to all pathology.
Clearly, serious scientists have linked the physiology of pheromone-controlled human reproduction from food energy to the ability to reproduce in all living genera. That is how the omnipresent pathology links the virus-driven degradation of messenger RNA from bacteria to the creation of archaea and L-forms. The L-forms are the last representation of what happens to all life forms that cannot find enough food energy to biophysically constrain viral latency.
See: Virus-mediated archaeal hecatomb in the deep seafloor

We show here for the first time the crucial role of viruses in controlling archaeal dynamics and therefore the functioning of deep-sea ecosystems, and suggest that virus-archaea interactions play a central role in global biogeochemical cycles.

For comparison, see: A universal trend of amino acid gain and loss in protein evolution

Amino acid composition of proteins varies substantially between taxa and, thus, can evolve.

Eugene Koonin knows that: “The entire evolution of the microbial world and the virus world, and the interaction between microbes and viruses and other life forms have been left out of the Modern Synthesis…”
That fact forces him to fight against the claims of adaptationists who have refuted his pseudoscientific nonsense about mutations and evolution.
See: Splendor and misery of adaptation, or the importance of neutral null for understanding evolution
Koonin thinks that serious scientists who have linked the creation of energy to all biodiversity via the physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction in species from microbes to humans must prove that everything the serious scientists know did not occur randomly after the sun’s anti-entropic virucidal energy emerged from nothing.

In this study, across 60 melanoma cell lines, we find bimodal expression patterns of MHC-II, while MHC-I expression was ubiquitous. A unique subset of melanomas are capable of expressing MHC-II under basal or IFNγ-stimulated conditions. Using pathway analysis, we show that MHC-II(+) cell lines demonstrate signatures of ‘PD-1 signalling’, ‘allograft rejection’ and ‘T-cell receptor signalling’, among others.

UV light induced changes in the microRNA/messenger RNA balance have been linked to healthy longevity via the food energy-dependent RNA-mediated fixation of pheromone-controlled amino acid substitutions in organized genomes. Differences in the amino acid substitutions have been found in the organized genomes of all species.

The virus-driven theft of quantized energy such as UV light has been linked from the degradation of messenger RNA to all pathology.

Was it God who caused the cancer, or did God cause its demise? From my perspective on light energy as information and energy-dependent RNA-mediated DNA repair, it is clear that  melanoma-specific MHC-II expression represents a link from the virus-driven degradation of messenger RNA to a predicatable response from the innate immune system. That response has been made somewhat more predictable in the context of the phenotype that predicts the response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy.

See also:  New Dancing Couple: PD-L1 and MicroRNA

MicroRNAs are regulatory molecules (~20 nt in length) with the ability to regulate the expression of genes. The recently described PD-1 and PD-L1 molecules have great importance for potential use in immunotherapy of many cancers. These molecules are associated with immune checkpoints and provide an opportunity for the treatment of advanced NSCLC patients with synthetic monoclonal antibodies. PD-L1 expression is strictly associated with microRNA function in lung cancer cells. The group of microRNAs related to PD-L1 includes, among others, miR-200, miR-197 or miRNA-34. Expression of these molecules may be useful in lung cancer diagnosis, qualification to anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 antibody therapy and could be a potential therapeutic target. However, studies on PD-L1-related microRNAs are necessary to develop advanced targeted molecular therapies.

Studies of studies on PD-L1-related microRNAs and other microRNAs link the changes in electrons to ecosystems in all living genera. Focus on prevention and effective treatments of all pathology has been delayed by the focus on the CRISPR/Cas 9 gene editing technology. That focus is much more closely linked to the pseudoscientific nonsense touted by neo-Darwinian theorists who failed to link the virus-driven degradation of messenger RNA to all pathology.

Predicting who wins the 2017 Nobel Prizes (5)

Summary: If he was not still dead, the 1965 Nobel Laureate, Richard P. Feynman might claim that this year’s Physics Prize was awarded for “human idiocy.”
Nobel Prize in Physics Awarded to LIGO Black Hole Researchers

Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity, pronounced in 1916, suggested that matter and energy would warp the geometry of space-time the way a heavy sleeper sags a mattress, producing the effect we call gravity. His equations described a universe in which space and time were dynamic.
 

Other claims in this article appear to arise in the context of the emergence of energy from nothing with no mention of the biophysical constraints that link food energy from electrons to ecosystems via the pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction in species from microbes to humans.

If he was not still dead, the 1965 Nobel Laureate, Richard P. Feynman might claim that this year’s Physics Prize was awarded for “human idiocy.”

See:

 
Facts about Einstein’s “General Theory” have since been validated with experimental evidence of biologically-based cause and effect. See: Olfaction Warps Visual Time Perception
 

The energy-dependent de novo creation of G protein-coupled receptors, such as odor receptors, links the sense of smell in bacteria to the physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction, which links changes in chirality to autophagy. Autophagy links what organisms eat to cell type differentiation via amino acid substitutions that link our visual perception of energy and mass to the feedback loops that link what organisms eat to their behavior.

Experimental proof of concept might require the sacrifice of one mammal. If it can find a mass of energy that is biophysically constrained in a source of food, it must also eat the food and survive to reproduce. Foraging and reproduction occur in the context of facts presented in Feedback loops link odor and pheromone signaling with reproduction (co-authored by 2004 Nobel Laureate, Linda  Buck).

If an organism cannot find the food and eat it, entropy must clearly be linked to its death unless it is among the individuals of a species that mutated and evolved from a common ancestor. For comparison, theories about common ancestors can be linked to the billion dollar LIGO “black hole” project and to this year’s Nobel Laureates in Physics.

I encourage others who live on Earth to do that in the context of a money-saving effort to save all humanity from death that will be caused by the virus-driven entropy of organized genomes.

Sci-Hub vs limits on the dissemination of information

The ideology of “Americanism” is not consistent with the tactics of academics and politicians that constrain release of accurate information about  biologically-based cause and effect.

Americanism is an ideology, or belief in devotion, loyalty, or allegiance to the United States of America, or to its flag, traditions, customs, culture, symbols, institutions, or form of government.[2] In the words of Theodore Roosevelt, “Americanism is a question of spirit, conviction, and purpose, not of creed or birthplace.”[3]

Americanism has two different meanings. It can refer to the defining characteristics of the United States and can also signify loyalty to the United States and a defense of American political ideals. These ideals include, but are not limited to self-government, equal opportunity, freedom of speech, and a belief in progress.

Scientific progress has been hindered by publishing companies whose corporate purpose is financial gain for stockholders, not the dissemination of freecinformation that is required to make scientific progress by serious scientists who are Combating Evolution to Fight Disease.
Rarely do the efforts of serious scientists get noticed because there is too much pseudoscientific nonsense that gets published in peer-reviewed journals. The nonsense overwhelms the ability to discern between facts and story-telling. Evolutionary theorists, for example, are story-tellers.
For an attempt to resolve the problem with theorists, see: Publishers’ Legal Action Advances Against Sci-Hub

Based on data from Google Trends, researchers found that the suits against Sci-Hub led to brief spikes in visits to the site.

The publishers contribute to the theft of information because most people do not care how they acquire it. People want the information on biologically based cause and effect for free, and many of them will use it to make scientific advances such as those that have linked energy-dependent changes in microRNAs to all pathology.
A PubMed search for “microRNA” reveals that nearly 65,000 indexed published works have already established facts that link virus-driven energy theft to all pathology. Most the publications are behind “pay walls.”
That means most researchers will be unable to access all of them. Anyone outside the specific discipline that is the focus of the article will not be likely to integrate the information across disciplines and accurately represent what is known about biophysically constrained biologically-based cause and effect.
For an example of the level of integration that is required, request a copy from the corresponding author and wait to see the information in this “pay-walled” publication: Olfaction Warps Visual Time Perception.
By the time you get it, there will probably be several hundred more publications that link the food energy-dependent physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction in bacteria to our visual perception of energy and mass in the context of the space-time continuum.

Excerpt:

…this model incorporates a logical pathway that directly links sensory input from the social environmental to the development of sexual preferences and to the development of sexual behavior.

The five-step logical pathway that directly links sensory input from the social environment to the development of sexual preferences and sexual behavior is gene→cell→tissue→organ→organ system. Failure to incorporate any of the steps in this pathway makes it impossible to directly connect to sexual preferences and sexual behavior, a logical sequence of events that must somehow and somewhere begin with the effect of sensory input from the social environment.

All cell-mediated processes are energy-dependent and biophysically constrained by the pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction in species from microbes to humans.

Energy dependent life does not change itself. RNA-mediated events must be linked to the stability of organized genomes. The organized genomes cannot come first. The details of energy-dependent cell-mediated RNA-directed DNA methylation clearly link the virucidal energy of sunlight from microRNAs in plants to the microRNAome of all mammals. All humans are included.

RNA interference occurs in plants, animals, and humans. It is of great importance for the regulation of gene expression, participates in defense against viral infections, and keeps jumping genes under control. RNA interference is already being widely used in basic science as a method to study the function of genes and it may lead to novel therapies in the future.

Naturally occurring endogenous RNA interference links what organisms eat from their physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction to all energy-dependent biodiversity on Earth via biophysically constrained viral latency. For example, see:

The Bull Sperm MicroRNAome and the Effect of Fescue Toxicosis on Sperm MicroRNA Expression

MicroRNA present in mature sperm appears to not only be left over from spermatogenic processes, but may actually serve important regulatory roles in fertilization and early developmental processes. Further, our results indicate the possibility that environmental changes may impact the expression of specific miRNA.

The Breadth of Viruses in Human Semen

The presence of viruses in semen is probably more widespread than currently appreciated, and the absence of virus in genital secretions should not be assumed for traditionally non–sexually transmitted viruses. The investigation of virus detection and persistence in semen across a range of viruses is useful for clinical and public health reasons, in particular for viruses that lead to high mortality or morbidity rates or to epidemics.

Many years and more than $1 billion in research later, Alnylam is finally on the cusp of proving that RNAi can be transformed into a medicine that helps patients.

Scientists did not invent RNAi. They discovered that it links what organisms eat to their biophysically constrained pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction. That fact links RNAi to all biodiversity without the pseudoscientific nonsense touted by evolutionary theorists. The cost of any RNAi drug that is approved will almost assuredly bankrupt the person who needs the drug and the cost will probably destroy the economy of the United States of America via the impact on the costs of Medicare and/or other insurance.

The fact that one amino acid substitution alters antigenic changes in the influenza viruse and one amino acid substitution stabilizes the organized genomes of primates attests to what Richard Feynman referred to as human idiocy in this snippet about food energy from one of his lectures.

Your favorite phrase, “biologically uninformed science idiots” alienates you from people because it sounds insulting and egotistical. — Saibot Rodrigo

“Mutation-driven evolution” sounds insulting and egotistical to serious scientists. Only pseudoscientists use it to dismiss everything known about how quantum physics must be linked to the creation of quantum souls via food energy and the physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction.

Here are two examples of how pseudoscientists alienate serious scientists. (Jay R. Feierman is a retired medical practitioner and former psychiatrist.)
 
For example: 7/25/13
Jay R. Feierman:
Variation is not nutrient availability and the something that is doing the selecting is not the individual organism. A feature of an educated person is to realize what they do not know. Sadly, you don’t know that you have an incorrect understanding [of] Darwinian biological evolution.
Jay R. Feierman:

I am absolutely certain that if you showed this statement to any professor of biology or genetics in any accredited university anywhere in the world that 100% of them would say that “Random mutations are the substrate upon which directional natural selection acts” is a correct and true statement.

Of 1.15 million single-nucleotide variants found among more than 15,000 protein-encoding genes, 73% in arose the past 5,000 years, the researchers report. 164,688 of the variants — roughly 14% — were potentially harmful, and of those, 86% arose in the past 5,000 years. More broadly, the results suggest that humans are carrying around larger numbers of deleterious mutations than they did a few thousand years ago. But this doesn’t mean that humans now are more susceptible to disease, says Akey. Rather, it suggests that most diseases are caused by more than one variant, and that diseases could operate through different genetic pathways and mechanisms in different people.

The claim that diseases could operate through different mechanisms in different people cannot be supported by experimental evidence of biologically-based cause and effect. Healthy longevity and virus-driven pathology have been linked from energy-dependent RNA-mediated cell type differentiation to all biophysically constrained biodiversity via the creation of the sun’s anti-entropic virucidal energy, which prevents the degradation of messenger RNA. The virus-driven degradation of messenger RNA has been linked from mutations to all pathology in all living genera via conserved molecular mechanisms.

Simply put, what organisms eat has been linked from the physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction to all biophysically constrained biodiversity. What organisms eat links their species-specific nutrient-dependent pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction to protection of all organized genomes from virus-driven entropy.

See: Herpesviruses shape tumour microenvironment through exosomal transfer of viral microRNAs (with my emphasis)

This flow of genetic information results in a metabolic shift toward aerobic glycolysis in the surrounding non-infected cells. Importantly, this exosome-mediated metabolic reprogramming of neighbouring cells supports the growth of infected cells, thereby contributing to viral fitness. Finally, our data show that this miRNA transfer-based regulation of cell metabolism is a general mechanism used by other herpesviruses, such as EBV, as well as for the transfer of non-viral onco-miRs. This exosome-based crosstalk provides viruses with a mechanism for non-infectious transfer of genetic material without production of new viral particles, which might expose them to the immune system. We suggest that viruses and cancer cells use this mechanism to shape a specific metabolic niche that will contribute to their fitness.

The flow of genetic information must link energy as information to all biologically based cause and effect via the physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction in all living genera.

New technological advances raise the potential for an increasingly sophisticated understanding of post-transcriptional control in the developing neocortex. Many RNA-binding factors are also implicated in neurodevelopmental diseases of the cortex. Therefore, elucidating how RBPs and miRs converge to influence mRNA expression in progenitors and neurons will give valuable insights into mechanisms of cortical development and disease.

The fact that food energy-dependent RNA-binding factors and the de novo creation of microRNAs in plants and animals prevent the virus-driven degradation of messenger RNA, which links mutations to all pathology has been established in the context of nearly 64,000 published works that are currently indexed on PubMed.

See also: Chromogenic In Situ Hybridization Methods for microRNA Biomarker Monitoring of Drug Safety and Efficacy

Disease research and treatment development have turned to the impact and utility of microRNA. The dynamic and highly specific expression of these molecular regulators can be used to predict and monitor disease progression as well as therapeutic treatment efficacy and safety, thus aiding decisions in patient care. In situ hybridization (ISH) of biopsy material has become a routine clinical pathology procedure for monitoring gene structure, expression, and sample characterization. For ribonucleic acid (RNA), determining cell source and level of expression of these biomarkers gives insight into the cellular function and physiopathology. Identification and monitoring of microRNA biomarkers are made possible through locked nucleic acid (LNA)™-based detection probes.

My comment to the Exiqon FB page:

Energy-dependent changes in the microRNA/messenger RNA balance have now been linked to healthy longevity and all extant biodiversity via the physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction in all living genera. “RNA on the brain: emerging layers of post-transcriptional regulation in cerebral cortex development.” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28837264

The virus-driven degradation of messenger RNA has been linked from mutations to all pathology. See for example: “Herpesviruses shape tumour microenvironment through exosomal transfer of viral microRNAs.” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28837697

Exiqon’s advances in detection of changes in the microRNA/messenger RNA balance has linked electrons to ecosystems via amino acid substitutions in all living genera. The company seems well-prepared to eliminate most, if not all theories, about the differences between healthy longevity and virus-driven pathology.

Most theorists have paid no attention whatsoever to the advances in technology. That fact attests to the difference between serious scientists and pseudoscientists. Pseudoscientists have been stuck with their theories.

Reported as: Scientists solve longstanding biological mystery of DNA organization

Besides potentially upending the textbook model of DNA organization, the team’s results suggest that controlling access to chromatin could be a useful approach to preventing, diagnosing and treating diseases such as cancer.

“We show that chromatin does not need to form discrete higher-order structures to fit in the nucleus,” adds O’Shea. “It’s the packing density that could change and limit the accessibility of chromatin, providing a local and global structural basis through which different combinations of DNA sequences, nucleosome variations and modifications could be integrated in the nucleus to exquisitely fine-tune the functional activity and accessibility of our genomes.”

The packing density of supercoiled DNA is energy-dependent and biophysically constrained by the pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction in all living genera. Sunlight is the source of all biophysically constrained energy on Earth.The anti-entropic virucidal effect of sunlight biophysically constrains the degradation of messenger RNA.
Virus-driven energy theft causes negative supercoiling of supercoiled DNA. Without food energy-dependent RNA-mediated DNA repair (autophagy), viruses cause the degradation of messenger RNA that links mutations to all pathology. The sun’s anti-entropic virucidal energy links changes in chirality to autophagy and the de novo creation of enzymes, hormones and receptors that are needed to protect all organized genomes from viruses.
The textbook model of DNA organization was represented in Mutation-driven evolution for comparison to “Nutrient-dependent/pheromone-controlled adaptive evolution: a model, which was published on the same day more than 4 years ago.
Masatoshi Nei used an ambiguous definition of mutation and linked any energy-dependent nucleotide substitution, insertion/deletion, segmental gene duplication, genomic duplication, changes in gene regulatory systems, transposition of genes, horizontal gene transfer, etc, (any change in the structure of supercoiled DNA) from natural selection to an evolutionary process initiated by mutation.
In my review, I used examples of food energy-dependent changes in base pairs to link the honeybee model of nutrient-dependent pheromone-controlled biodiversity to a history of published works that began with The Scent of Eros: Mysteries of Odor in Human Sexuality (reviewed by Mark Sergeant)
The index from The Scent of Eros: Mysteries of Odor in Human Sexuality may help others to establish all the known links from the energy-dependent de novo creation of microRNAs to the creation of G protein-coupled receptors and gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion, which was linked to all biodiversity.

I would like to know why Shin-ichiro Imai, who studies ageing at Washington University in St Louis, Missouri, claims to know nothing about food energy-dependent pheromone-controlled RNA-mediated biophysically constrained viral latency, which prevents the degradation of messenger RNA. I expect that anyone who studies aging to learn that the virus-driven degradation of messenger RNA links mutations to all pathology via effects on all cell types in all individuals of all living genera. Perhaps Shin-ichiro Imai, and others who have not learned anything about energy-dependent cell type differentiation can play the game “Cytosis” when it is released in September, 2017. Or, perhaps they all are neo-Darwinian theorists who prefer not to examine any of the experimental evidence that links energy-dependent microRNAs to healthy longevity and virus-driven energy theft to all pathology.

Liberals hate that fact because it refutes their ridiculous theories about the emergence of energy and the evolution of all biodiversity via mutations and natural selection. They would rather watch people like Dick suffer and die prematurely from cancer than admit that they are biologically uninformed science idiots. (idiot: someone with no professional expertise)
Without labeling them, Feynman claimed that liberals were examples of human idiocy. He failed to differentiate between the beliefs of conservatives and liberals, but those differences have become perfectly clear.
Even those who have learned nothing about “The character of Physical Law” understand that all organisms must eat. That is why Feynman complained about the different units that are used to measure the single concept of energy. The energy that sustains life and all biodiversity via the physiology of reproduction comes from food.
Reported by James Kohl on 7/27/14 Study shows epigenetic changes can drive cancer
“Potential applications of this novel mouse model include the testing of targeted epigenetic therapies for prevention and treatment of human cancer.” http://www.jci.org/articles/view/76507
“Our straightforward approach to epigenetic engineering should be useful in testing the causal role of other epigenetic alterations implicated in carcinogenesis, and broadly applicable toward elucidating epigenetic etiology in a wide range of diseases.”
Their straightforward approach confirms that cell type differentiation is nutrient-dependent and pheromone-controlled in species from microbes to man, which refutes any aspect of mutation-initiated natural selection in the context of the evolution of biodiversity.

Ecological variation in the nutrient supply leads to ecological adaptations via the pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction. Evolutionary theory should have been replaced by biological facts more than 18 years ago. We could have avoided the past 18 years of pseudoscientific nonsense about mutations and cancer and learned more about its origins, prevention, and effective treatments.

Energy-dependent physical and biophysical constraints (6)

Conclusion: Like Richard Dawkins, Magnus S. Magnusson is a pseudoscientist.

A light-induced change in an endogenous substrate found in all cell types of all living genera links femtosecond blasts of UV light from the de novo creation of the innate immune system to RNA-mediated DNA repair in species from microbes to humans. The theft of quantized energy by viruses has been linked to all pathology.

The speed at which quantum decoherence occurs makes it difficult for virus-driven energy theft to be carried from one generation to the next via chromosomal inheritance, which is the only way that nutrient-dependent pheromone-controlled transgenerational epigenetic inheritance occurs — if it does not occur automagically in the small minds of theorists.

See first: Energy-dependent physical and biophysical constraints (5)
See next: Design of a synthetic yeast genome
They use what occurs in the context of natural selection for quantized energy-dependent changes in base pairs and link RNA-mediated amino acid substitutions from changes in enzymes and feedback loops. The feedback loops link the pheromone-controlled de novo creation of more receptors via the physiology of reproduction, which biophysically constrains viral latency in all organized genomes.
Their work was reported today, July 26, 2017 in the context of Scientists build DNA from scratch to alter life’s blueprint with my emphasis

Boeke, a researcher at New York University, directs an international team of 11 labs on four continents working to “rewrite” the yeast genome, following a detailed plan they published in March.

The research may reveal basic, hidden rules that govern the structure and functioning of genomes.

All serious scientists known that the structure and function of all organized genomes is energy-dependent and RNA-mediated. For example, in all animals the functional structure of supercoiled DNA is controlled by food odors and pheromones in the context of the physiology of energy-dependent reproduction that links food energy-dependent changes in the microRNA/messenger RNA balance to healthy longevity. Alternatively, virus-driven energy theft links the degradation of messenger RNA from mutations to all pathology.

See: Viral MicroRNAs, Host MicroRNAs Regulating Viruses, and Bacterial MicroRNA-Like RNAs

The question arises: Does Boeke or anyone like him know that the organized genome of yeast is rewritten only in the context of the food energy-dependent pheromone-controlled biophysical constraints on viral latency? I ask because he may be hiding something. Anyone who does not know how chirality and autophagy biophysically constrain viral latency is not likely to have written a book chapter like this, which was co-authored by J.D. Boeke in 1988.

See: Yeast Ty Elements as Retroviruses in  Viruses of Fungi and Simple Eukaryotes

The title of J.D. Boeke’s latest effort: Design of a synthetic yeast genome, would make any young earth creationist proud of his Boeke’s accomplishment. It attests to facts about “design” that atheistic hate mongers like Richard Dawkins and other pseudoscientists have linked from mutations and natural selection to evolution.

See: Mutation-Driven Evolution

See also for example: Magnus S. Magnusson’s comments on Richard Dawkins event cancelled over his ‘abusive speech against Islam’ Magunsson started removing my responses a few hours ago.

I attempted to discuss the fact that Boeke and others use base substitutions within ORFs to introduce or remove enzyme recognition sites. That is how they facilitate the energy-dependent assembly of synthetic chromosomes.

But there’s more! Boeke’s history of publications links nearly 30 years of pseudoscientific nonsense to an impressive refutation of neo-Darwinian theory. The design of the synthetic yeast genome via the energy-dependent assembly of synthetic chromosomes attests to the fact that natural selection for energy-dependent codon optimality is the link to the design of all biophysically constrained biodiversity.

See for instance: Codon identity regulates mRNA stability and translation efficiency during the maternal-to-zygotic transition

Some people might think that pseudoscientists can recover from refutation linked to the stability of messenger RNA (mRNA), but the recovery time ended two decades ago with publication of From Fertilization to Adult Sexual Behavior

See our section on molecular epigenetics.

Yet another kind of epigenetic imprinting occurs in species as diverse as yeast, Drosophila, mice, and humans and is based upon small DNA-binding proteins called “chromo domain” proteins, e.g., polycomb. These proteins affect chromatin structure, often in telomeric regions, and thereby affect transcription and silencing of various genes…

The proteins do not automagically create themselves. Energy-dependent changes in chirality must be linked from autophagy to biophysically constrained viral latency. In that context, this report is another clear refutation of mutation-driven evolution.

See: Lipophilic siRNA targets albumin in situ and promotes bioavailability, tumor penetration, and carrier-free gene silencing

These data reveal the immense promise of in situ albumin targeting for development of translational, carrier-free RNAi-based cancer therapies.

The increased amount of information on naturally occurring energy-dependent RNA interference (RNAi) linked to cancer treatment was reported as: Molecular hitchhiker on human protein signals tumors to self-destruct

“What fascinates and excites me most about this approach, in addition to improved tumor penetration, is lack of toxicity at a relatively high dose,” she said. “We could potentially use our siRNA delivery system to target several genes simultaneously or sequentially. Most cancers are driven by multiple abnormal genes, so targeting one often leads to activation of others as the tumor adapts.”

Tumors do not adapt. Viruses quickly adapt via energy theft and the substitutions of amino acids in their genomes. The amino acid substitutions in the tumors cause the tumors to adapt to the lack of energy-dependent microRNAs carried by albumin. That is how virus-driven energy theft is linked to the proliferation of undifferentiated cell types in all tissues of all organisms.

See: The phylogenetic utility and functional constraint of microRNA flanking sequences

As detailed here, the clear identity and easy alignment of these sequences makes them good candidates for estimating phylogeny, and they can reliably be found and identified across all members of a clade of interest. Their relatively slow evolution [3] also means that they can easily be identified in de novo assemblies of genomes.

The energy-dependent microRNA flanking sequences do not evolve and genes do not assemble themselves.  Quantized energy as information biophysically constrains virus-driven energy theft, which would otherwise link mutations to all pathology.

Young earth creationists recently placed the virus-driven theft of quantized energy into the context of Cancer Research Confirms the Curse.

…the cancer-suppressing molecule NAD+ diminishes with age appeared in the same Science issue.3Harvard Medical School News summarized the findings. As NAD+ lessens, “DNA breaks go unrepaired and, as these breaks accumulate over time, precipitate cell damage, cell mutations, cell death and loss of organ function.”4 It seems the only way to cure cancer would be to somehow reach into and constantly correct every cell’s mutations.

Carrier-free gene silencing links femtosecond blasts of UV light from the anti-entropic virucidal effects of sunlight on contact with water to everything serious scientists know about food energy-dependent top-down causation and changes in the microRNA/messenger RNA balance, which have been linked to all biophysically constrained biodiversity via what organisms eat and the physiology of their pheromone-controlled reproduction.

See: UV-Induced Charge Transfer States in DNA Promote Sequence Selective Self-Repair

The sequences have been selected according special charge distributions and lifetimes of excimer states previously characterized by femtosecond infrared spectroscopy.(3a, 3c, 3d) With these selected sequences we demonstrate that repair occurs when the intrastrand charge transfer leads to a suitably charged nucleotide adjacent to the lesion.

A femtosecond is the SI unit of time equal to 10−15 or 1/1,000,000,000,000,000 of a second; that is, one quadrillionth, or one millionth of one billionth, of a second.[1] For context, a femtosecond is to a second as a second is to about 31.71 million years; a ray of light travels approximately 0.3 µm (micrometers) in 1 femtosecond, a distance comparable to the diameter of a virus.[2]

For comparison: One picosecond is equal to 1000 femtoseconds (fs). Theoretical physicists who thought they knew something about the nature of quantum coherence based their theories on measurements of timescales up to 1.5 picoseconds (ps), but they have since learned that decoherence occurs within 60 fs. The transfer of energy in the context of photosynthesis clearly links the anti-entropic virucidal energy of UV light to RNA-mediated DNA repair in much less time than theorists realized.

See: Nature does not rely on long-lived electronic quantum coherence for photosynthetic energy transfer

Given the relatively well-defined structure of the FMO protein, and comparative couplings between chlorophylls to other photosynthetic systems, the observed extremely fast decoherence should be viewed as general, bringing to question any significant quantum coherent transport contributions to photosynthesis.

Magnusson and other atheistic hate-mongers that can be compared to any display by anyone who has ever been involved in linking pattern recognition to biophysically constrained life on Earth.

For comparison, that is what young earth creationists have done with the information about energy as information from Biblical Genesis.

The light’s coming off at different angles, with different colors, depending on how bright it is.

That phenomenon stemmed partly from a change in the electron, which abandoned its usual up-and-down motion in favor of a figure-8 flight pattern. As it would under normal conditions, the electron also ejected its own photon, which was jarred loose by the energy of the incoming photons. But the researchers found that the ejected photon absorbed the collective energy of all the scattered photons, granting it the energy and wavelength of an X-ray.

See: The Reality of Color Is Perception

Color is one of the longstanding puzzles in philosophy, raising doubts about the truthfulness of our sensory grasp on things, and provoking concerns as to the metaphysical compatibility of scientific, perceptual, and common sense representations of the world. Most philosophers have argued that colors are either real or not real, physical or psychological. The greater challenge is to theorize the subtle way that color stands between our understanding of the physical and the psychological.

See for comparison: Olfaction Warps Visual Time Perception

The fact that olfaction warps visual time perception links the speed of light on contact with water from the visual appeal of a rainbow to the integration of all sensory input and our appreciation of how energy and mass are linked across the time-space continuum via what is known about the sense of smell in bacteria and the food energy-dependent pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction in all living genera.

For comparison, Magnus S. Magnusson co-authored “Complex spike patterns in olfactory bulb neuronal networks”  He and his colleagues failed to link fast decoherence from the anti-entropic virucidal energy of sunlight to all biodiversity via the physiology of reproduction and RNA-mediated DNA repair.

In the world of those who have consistently linked olfaction to our visual perception of energy and mass in the context of the space-time continuum, Magnusson can be referred to as a biologically uninformed science idiot — if only because he has no expertise in any scientific discipline.

Conclusion: Like Richard Dawkins, Magnus S. Magnusson is a pseudoscientist.

A light-induced change in an endogenous substrate found in all cell types of all living genera links femtosecond blasts of UV light from the de novo creation of the innate immune system to RNA-mediated DNA repair in species from microbes to humans. The theft of quantized energy by viruses has been linked to all pathology via the difference between “Nature” and God’s perfect “Creation.”

The speed at which quantum decoherence occurs makes it difficult for virus-driven energy theft to be carried from one generation to the next via chromosomal inheritance, which is the only way that nutrient-dependent pheromone-controlled transgenerational epigenetic inheritance occurs — if it does not occur automagically in the small minds of theorists.

Although that fact has been repeatedly revealed in the extant scientific literature, which includes texts like the Holy Bible, atheistic hate-mongers refuse to read anything that challenges their beliefs at the same time they either claim to believe in nothing or attack the beliefs of intelligent scientists.

Energy-dependent physical and biophysical constraints (5)

Summary: Emmy Noethe’s theorems were developed in the early 1900’s. Richard Feynman inadvertently or purposefully alluded to them as examples of human idiocy.
Discover Magazine resurrected the examples of human idiocy in a 2017 article. For comparison, Choi et al., (2017) support the claims that intercellular and interkingdom communication is energy-dependent and controlled by the metabolism of food energy to pheromones.
It is obvious that pheromones biophysically constrain the virus-driven degradation of messenger RNA. That fact links everything currently known about RNA-mediated cell type differentiation to human love in the context of established links from quantum physics to quantum souls. It may surprise some people to know that the virus-driven evolution of love is the antithetical to the food energy-dependent physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction in all living genera. Indeed, some people may realize that the virus-driven evolution of anything is based upon ridiculous theories that were invented by Emmy Noethe.
See: Energy-dependent physical and biophysical constraints (4)
Natural selection links odors and the food energy from what organisms eat to the de novo creation of microRNAs. The creation of microRNAs is linked to biophysically constrained energy-dependent codon optimality.
Odor and food energy-dependent changes in microRNAs link hydrogen-atom transfer in DNA base pairs in solution from the creation of amino acids to the ability to sense energy and mass in the context of the space-time continuum. The sense of smell in bacteria has been linked to our food energy-dependent visual perception of the space-time continuum.
Publication of Olfaction Warps Visual Time Perception precedes the September 2017 release of the cell biology game Cytosis. The cell biology game links virus-driven energy theft to all pathology.

A board game taking place inside a human cell! Players compete to build enzymes, hormones and receptors and fend off attacking Viruses!

Taken together, the facts about olfaction link the sense of smell in bacteria from quorum sensing to our visual perception of mass and energy in the context of the space-time continuum. It is no trouble for a serious scientist to consistently link quantum physics from food energy to the creation of quantum souls via changes in the microRNA/messenger RNA balance and the pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction.
Richard Feynman inadvertently did that when he claimed that the different measures for units of energy used by other theoretical physicists were examples of human idiocy.

…energy may not be conserved “locally” — that is, in an arbitrarily small patch of space — but everything works out when the space is sufficiently large. That was one of two theorems she proved that year in Göttingen, Germany. The other theorem, which would ultimately have a far greater impact, uncovered an intimate link between conservation laws (such as the conservation of energy) and the symmetries of nature, a connection that physicists have exploited ever since. Today, our current grasp of the physical world, from subatomic particles to black holes, draws heavily upon this theorem, now known simply as Noether’s theorem.

Emmy Noethe’s so-called theorems, which she developed in the early 1900’s, attempted to explain how the concept of entropy might not appear to defy everything known to serious scientists about the biophysically constrained energy-dependent physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction, which links feedback loops from odors and pheromones to the creation of all energy-dependent biodiversity on Earth.
Simply put, more than 100 years ago Emmy Noethe’s theorems suggested that all representations of energy-dependent biologically-based cause and effect are wrong. For a current representation of what is known, see: Feedback loops link odor and pheromone signaling with reproduction.
The physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction links what organisms eat to all energy-dependent biodiversity via the de novo creation of genes and gene activation that is biophysically constrained by the metabolism of food to pheromones which control the physiology of reproduction in all living genera.

Independent and bidirectional probes are specifically optimized to detect internal tandem duplications (ITDs) of all sizes. The reads originating from these probes are bioinformatically assembled by Archer Analysis using a de novo assembler to form longer consensus sequences that span the ITD. These longer sequences are then aligned to the reference genome to identify the presence of even very large ITDs (> 250bp).a

Use of a so-called “de novo assembler” eliminates any consideration of energy as information that must be used in the context of bioinformatics and the identify of reference genomes that are used to identify pathological gene variants that arise in the context of energy-dependent de novo gene creation.  The link from Emmy Noethe’s theorems to the pseudoscientific nonsense about the  “de novo assembler” may not be clear without examination of facts about the physiology of reproduction.
For example, see: Physiology is rocking the foundations of evolutionary biology

Perhaps the elegant mathematics and the extraordinary reputation of the scientists involved blinded us to what now seems obvious: the organism should never have been relegated to the role of mere carrier of its genes.

For information on Emmy Noethe’s reputation and her elegant mathematics, see:

The Mighty Mathematician You’ve Never Heard Of (2012)

She invented a theorem that united with magisterial concision two conceptual pillars of physics: symmetry in nature and the universal laws of conservation.

Noether’s brilliance was obvious to all who worked with her, and her male mentors repeatedly took up her cause…

A Fight for the Soul of Science (2015)

Silk accused these theorists of “moving the goalposts” of science and blurring the line between physics and pseudoscience. “The imprimatur of science should be awarded only to a theory that is testable,” Ellis and Silk wrote, thereby disqualifying most of the leading theories of the past 40 years. “Only then can we defend science from attack.”

Nutrient-dependent pheromone-controlled ecological adaptations: from atoms to ecosystems April by James V Kohl

This atoms to ecosystems model of ecological adaptations links nutrient-dependent epigenetic effects on base pairs and amino acid substitutions to pheromone-controlled changes in the microRNA / messenger RNA balance and chromosomal rearrangements. The nutrient-dependent pheromone-controlled changes are required for the thermodynamic regulation of intracellular signaling, which enables biophysically constrained nutrient-dependent protein folding; experience-dependent receptor-mediated behaviors, and organism-level thermoregulation in ever-changing ecological niches and social niches. Nutrient-dependent pheromone-controlled ecological, social, neurogenic and socio-cognitive niche construction are manifested in increasing organismal complexity in species from microbes to man. Species diversity is a biologically-based nutrient-dependent morphological fact and species-specific pheromones control the physiology of reproduction. The reciprocal relationships of species-typical nutrient-dependent morphological and behavioral diversity are enabled by pheromone-controlled reproduction. Ecological variations and biophysically constrained natural selection of nutrients cause the behaviors that enable ecological adaptations. Species diversity is ecologically validated proof-of-concept. Ideas from population genetics, which exclude ecological factors, are integrated with an experimental evidence-based approach that establishes what is currently known. This is known: Olfactory/pheromonal input links food odors and social odors from the epigenetic landscape to the physical landscape of DNA in the organized genomes of species from microbes to man during their development.

Tiny RNAs and their voyage via extracellular vesicles: Secretion of bacterial small RNA and eukaryotic microRNA

MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that bind to the 3′-untranslated region of target mRNAs and have transcriptional or translational inhibitory function in eukaryotes. Before microRNAs were widely known, bacterial non-coding small RNAs around 50-200 nt in length were discovered whose mechanism of action resembled that of microRNAs. Recently, RNAs that are of similar size to or smaller than microRNAs have been discovered in bacteria and indeed, this class of small RNAs have been found throughout all domains of life. Moreover, recent findings suggest that these tiny RNAs can be released via extracellular vesicles (such as exosomes in eukaryotes and outer membrane vesicles in bacteria), which in turn heralds a new field of research, interkingdom communication. This review discusses two similar classes of small RNAs in evolutionarily distinct eukaryotes and bacteria. In addition to their biogenesis and regulation, we discuss small RNA vehicles and their secretion. Impact statement The possible endogenous functions of small RNAs such as regulatory small RNAs in bacteria and microRNAs in eukaryotes have been extensively studied since they were first discovered. However, their powerful functions should not be seen as limited to their cells of origin. Recently, several papers have demonstrated that small RNAs function as signaling molecules between cells. This is possible because small RNAs can be shuttled around after being incorporated into environmentally protective extracellular vesicles. It is now clearly plausible that secreted small RNAs can regulate other types of cells through biofluids. Given their “common molecule” status, the role of small RNAs in mediating bacteria-human crosstalk is an emerging and competitive area of genetic research. This review provides insight into the function of small RNAs in intercellular and even interkingdom communication.

As indicated in my 2014 invited review of nutritional epigenetics, which was returned without review, endogenous functions of regulatory RNAs such as small RNAs in bacteria and microRNAs in eukaryotes have been extensively detailed in the context of biophysically constrained biologically-based cause and effect. These authors attest to the fact that the structure and function of bacterial small RNAs and eukaryotic microRNAs are not limited to their food energy-dependent de novo creation in their cells of origin.
The fact that small RNA and micro-RNA-mediated cell type differentiation occurs in the context of hydrogen-atom transfer in DNA base pairs in solution links the information in this review to claims that small RNAs in seawater solutions and microRNAs in blood link “common molecule” status to “… the function of small RNAs in intercellular and even interkingdom communication.”  The fact that intercellular and interkingdom communication is energy-dependent and controlled by the metabolism of food energy to pheromones that biophysically constrain the virus-driven degradation of messenger RNA, links everything currently known about cell type differentiation from quantum physics to quantum souls via the food energy-dependent physiology of reproduction in all living genera.

RNA-mediated adult learning, memory, and neurogenesis

Here is a way to assess the power of the media-industrial complex to suppress accurate representations of biophysically constrained biologically-based cause and effect.
Wait to see whether this experimental evidence is reported in the science news, or how it is reported.
Enriched Environment Increases PCNA and PARP1 Levels in Octopus vulgaris Central Nervous System: First Evidence of Adult Neurogenesis in Lophotrochozoa

The experimental data obtained by immunohistochemistry and western blot assay using proliferating cell nuclear antigen and poli (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 as marker of cell proliferation and synaptogenesis, respectively, reviled cell proliferation in areas of brain involved in learning, memory, and sensory stimuli integration. Furthermore, we showed how enriched environmental conditions affect adult neurogenesis.

The link from energy-dependent RNA methylation and endogenous RNA interference to fixation of amino acid substitutions in supercoiled DNA has again become an important consideration to serious scientists who understand the facts about how viral latency is established.

In this report, the differential effects of m6A appear to depend on natural selection for energy-dependent codon optimality and distinct cis-acting elements such as microRNAs that link the energy-dependent stability of organized genomes from the physiology of pheromone-controlled reproduction in bacteria to invertebrates and all vertebrates via interactions among the RNA molecule, m6A, and microRNAs.

For comparison, see: Evolutionarily conserved serum microRNAs predict radiation-induced fatality in nonhuman primates

…the same seven transcription factors are predicted to regulate the radiation-responsive serum miRNAs in humans, macaques, and mice. However, these results need to be experimentally validated, and our ability to do so has been limited for the following reasons. First, we do not know the source (cell type) of the serum miRNAs…

Anyone who does not know that the energy-dependent creation of serum miRNAs is biophysically constrained by what organisms eat might be a member of a High IQ Society. Some of them are like other biologically uninformed science idiots and atheistic magicians.

Clearly, magicians, most Mensans, and all neo-Darwinian theorists are likely to share the claim that energy automagically emerged before energy-dependent changes in the microRNA/messenger RNA balance led to the evolution of all nutrient-dependent pheromone-controlled biodiversity.

Finally, planning is under way for a great Annual Gathering and Colloquium in Hollywood, Fla. this July. The 5-star Diplomat Beach Resort has stunning waterfront views, and I can’t wait to see the Gala Dinner speaker, Penn Jillette of Penn & Teller fame.

See also: Famous Atheist Magician Penn Jillette Cites Bible as a Favorite Book

Penn Jillette, of the Penn and Teller comedy magic duo, named the Bible as one of his six favorite books in a column for “The Week.” Anyone who reads all of it will become an atheist, Jillette asserts.

Anyone who attends the 2017 Annual Gathering presentation and listens to this atheistic magician can compare his claims to those I made during my 2010 Annual Gathering presentation.
 

My claims are supported in their entirety by the claims in the Holy Bible that begin in Genesis with “Let there be light!” Light energy as information is the link to the Word of God in John 1:1.”In the beginning was the word.”

But, please keep in mind that Penn Jillette is a professional comedian, and I am not. I do not get paid to make fun of people and/or religions during presentations at Mensa Annual Gatherings.

I did include some humorous comments about those who have failed to link anything known about biologically-based cause and effect to their ridiculous behaviors, but no one seemed to be offended. I’ve already been too offended by the nonsense touted by other members of Mensa. Although I became a member in 1982, I will not renew this year. The insults of other Mensans are too much to bear, and now we see that the organization is promoting an atheistic agenda at the time when creationism is being linked to Americanism by the current President and his administration.
