NON-MUTATION EVOLUTION. "With this chromosomal methylation, organisms are able to handle multiple protein meanings of the same genetic dataset. As shown through some authors of epigenetics these...functions are influenced and altered through environmental and other reasons which are (reversibly) hereditable but do not involve or depend on mutations of the DNA itself." https://lnkd.in/eDswHmC View in LinkedIn

LINGUISTIC ORGANIZATION. "The genome is linguistically structured and communicatively organized." A compact phrase that unpacks wide and deep. https://lnkd.in/eDswHmC View in LinkedIn

"THE STRUCTURE of the genome itself is a linguistic one, more analog in eubacteria, more symbolic in archaebacteria and (higher) eukaryotes." https://lnkd.in/eDswHmC View in LinkedIn

FINITE SIGNS. "Languages (human and non human, bee languages) have a finite number of signs. They stand in relation to each other in an orderly manner which we term syntactic or grammatic rules. These must be followed in a correct way or they fail. Modern biological research documents very clearly, that interactions in and between living organisms are sign mediated and rule governed." https://lnkd.in/eDswHmC View in LinkedIn

COMPLEXITY FROM SIMPLICITY. "Using a finite number of signs and finite number of grammatic, semantic and pragmatic rules, existing rules of sign use can be indefinitely expanded, altered and/or newly combined to yield a new genetic text, new species, genera, organismic kingdoms, new forms of behavior, and new norms of (human) actions." https://lnkd.in/eDswHmC View in LinkedIn

COMMUNICATION. "The organization of life depends on successful intra-, inter- and metaorganismic communication processes. Interestingly, rule governed sign mediated interactions are not only the basis for human communication and coordination but a true principle of life itself." https://lnkd.in/eDswHmC View in LinkedIn

FUNDAMENTAL. "No single organism is able to communicate as an emergent property." https://lnkd.in/eydeQqR View in LinkedIn

RNA WORLD HYPOTHESIS. "The discovery of ribozymes supported a hypothesis, known as the RNA World Hypothesis, that earlier forms of life may have relied solely on RNA to store genetic information and to catalyze chemical reactions. This hypothesis was proposed independently by Carl Woese, Francis Crick and Leslie Orgel in the 1960s -- decades before the discovery of ribozymes -- and soon after the double-helical structure of DNA was determined." https://lnkd.in/eeUzYdR View in LinkedIn

NEW CONCEPTS. "The concepts of the origin of the genetic code and the definitions of life changed dramatically after the RNA world hypothesis. Main narratives in molecular biology and genetics such as the “central dogma,” “one gene one protein” and “non-coding DNA is junk” were falsified meanwhile. RNA moved from the transition intermediate molecule into centre stage." https://lnkd.in/eg6uePF View in LinkedIn

RNA VERSUS DNA. "Early RNA-world is plausible because RNA can reproduce itself autocatalytically, which DNA cannot. Moreover, RNA controls the assemblage of amino acids into protein sequences. Some RNAs are as competent as proteins: it can splice itself, i.e. rearrange its own molecular shape anew – it rearranges and reorganizes genetic material." https://lnkd.in/eDswHmC View in LinkedIn
