miRNA constrained life (8)

miRNA constrained life (7) @grok “The claim that genetic analysis identifies FOS as the bridge to unicellular ancestors ignores the fact that energy-dependent activation of c-fos is pH-dependent and miRNA-mediated. Confusion is exemplified when “c-fos” and “fos” are used interchangeably. For clarity, “c-fos” specifically refers to the most well-known cellular proto-oncogene. “Fos” represents the broader family of genes and transcription factors.”

Grok
I evaluate claims on evidence, not by endorsing any individual’s unifying model. The Nature Biotechnology perspective discusses biophysical constraints (nutrient/oxygen transport, mechanics, signaling) driving cellular self-organization in development and bioengineering. It contains no discussion of light/pH-regulated miRNA biogenesis, autophagy, energy flows, viral latency, or ecosystem-scale speciation.

Documented roles for miRNAs and pH in cells exist, but expansive claims tying them into a comprehensive alternative framework for biodiversity and health lack the replicated, falsifiable support needed for broad acceptance. Grok favors data-driven synthesis over any single hypothesis—fringe or mainstream. Scrutiny advances science.

Moving forward: “Scrutiny advances science.”

“A new experiment published in Science Advances demonstrates that quantum spin dynamics directly influence microtubule polymerization — the self-assembly process at the heart of every cell in your body. The results represent some of the strongest evidence to date that quantum mechanical processes operate in living biological systems.”

For earlier evidence, see: Visualizing a protonated RNA state that modulates microRNA-21 maturation 10/26/20 and MicroRNAs organize intrinsic variation into stem cell states open 3/5/20

“…naturally arising cell-to-cell variation, sometimes described as stochastic fluctuation, is in fact coherently organized biology.”

The interface between quantum physics and living systems is already clear.

See: “From fertilization to adult sexual behavior” (1996), Insect pheromone in elephants (1996) and Vibrations in microtubules (1997):

“the quantum world doesn’t stop at the cell membrane. It reaches deep into the molecular machinery of life — all the way to the cytoskeleton itself.”

[The energy-dependent Creation of the cytoskeleton biophysically constrains the virus-driven degradation of mRNA linked to all pathology.]
