Scientists describe a window into #evolution before the tree of life

Researchers describe a rare type of gene family, known as “universal paralogs”, that provides insight into evolutionary history predating the last universal common ancestor of all life. Detailed analysis of universal paralogs can reveal how the foundational features of modern #cells first emerged.

Aging researchers find new puzzle piece in the game of longevity

The lab of Kris Burkewitz just made a key discovery: How cellular machineries are structured and organized within a cell has implications for healthy aging. “We didn't just add a piece to the puzzle—we found a whole section that hasn't even been touched,” Eric Donahue, first author of the study, said.

“research shows that cells actively reshape the endoplasmic reticulum or ER…Rather than remaining static the ER undergoes controlled remodeling as organisms grow older. The team discovered that this remodeling happens through a process called ER-phagy”

A hidden cellular process may drive aging and disease

As we age, our cells don’t just wear down—they reorganize. Researchers found that cells actively remodel a key structure called the endoplasmic reticulum, reducing protein-producing regions while preserving fat-related ones. This process, driven by ER-phagy, is tied to lifespan and healthy aging. Because these changes happen early, they could help trigger later disease—or offer a chance to stop it.

#29 Genetic evolution and mutation.

What you see in four steps is the cell division created with a metaball algorithm. You should know that my two favorites in generative art are metaballs and noise. And they are both similar because the results look like organic fluid or very soft materials.

Also, I thought to try these 4 quadrants instead of an animation because often you do not have time to watch a whole animation. But both have their existence.

💡 Have you ever wondered how many N-Glycans or #glycoproteins there are on cells?

The numbers are massive: calculations suggest about 20 to 200 million N-glycans per human cell!
