With the power of synthetic chemistry and
molecular
biology and just under 20 years of work, we created bacteria with six-letter DNA.
Don't worry about the
molecular
details, but I think you can see how different they are.
Could we potentially understand more about what happens in the brain at the
molecular
level if we see the brain as part of the entire body?
Organic chemistry, scaled up in complexity, gives us
molecular
biology, which of course leads to life itself.
Of course quantum mechanics underpins life at some
molecular
level.
To paraphrase a description in the book, he says: At the
molecular
level, living organisms have a certain order, a structure to them that's very different from the random thermodynamic jostling of atoms and molecules in inanimate matter of the same complexity.
And actually, there is an important precedent for such a pause from the 1970s, when scientists got together to call for a moratorium on the use of
molecular
cloning, until the safety of that technology could be tested carefully and validated.
So I undertook what we call a systems biology approach in order to get a comprehensive understanding of desiccation tolerance, in which we look at everything from the
molecular
to the whole plant, ecophysiological level.
See, if the cells are frozen, there's very little
molecular
movement, and diffusion practically stops.
And so members of my team immediately went out and joined Dr. Humarr Khan and his team there, and we set up diagnostics to be able to have sensitive
molecular
tests to pick up Ebola if it came across the border and into Sierra Leone.
On May 23, 2014, a woman checked into the maternity ward at the hospital, and the team ran those important
molecular
tests and they identified the first confirmed case of Ebola in Sierra Leone.
This asymmetry at the
molecular
level is reflected in asymmetric cells, asymmetric embryos, and finally asymmetric organisms.
That's true in the
molecular
pandemonium that lets your cells function, the tangled thicket of neurons that produces your thoughts and identity, your network of friends and family, all the way up to the structures and economies of our cities across the planet.
Like humans, these microorganisms love sugar, using it as a
molecular
building block and energy source.
These
molecular
traces on the surface of pathogens and other foreign substances betray the presence of invaders.
Engineering at the
molecular
level, working at the smallest of scales, can provide exciting new ways to fight the most aggressive forms of cancer.
Using
molecular
engineering, we can actually design a superweapon that can travel through the bloodstream.
It comes from
molecular
biology, which has given us antibiotics, vaccines and better ways to observe the physiological nuances of the human body.
Maybe we could pinpoint the exact set of
molecular
changes that occur in a brain disorder.
So it's not at the level of resolution where it can pinpoint the
molecular
changes that occur or the changes in the wiring of these networks that contributes to our ability to be conscious and powerful beings.
And of course, we can pinpoint, hopefully, the actual problems in the brain at a
molecular
level.
Can we actually pinpoint the
molecular
changes in a tumor so that we can actually go after it in a smart way and deliver drugs that might wipe out exactly the cells that we want to?
While the
molecular
causes of Alzheimer's are still debated, most neuroscientists believe that the disease begins when amyloid beta begins to accumulate.
We think it takes at least 15 to 20 years of amyloid plaque accumulation before it reaches a tipping point, then triggering a
molecular
cascade that causes the clinical symptoms of the disease.
Today, tens of thousands of cancers are understood down to exquisite
molecular
detail.
Then we use
molecular
biology methods to be able to enrich this DNA for areas of the genome which are known to be associated with cancer, based on the information from the cancer genomics projects.
It's hard to imagine, but your nose has the
molecular
machinery to make it happen.
See, all this time I had been thinking of telomeres as those miniscule
molecular
structures that they are, and the genes that control telomeres.
They affect that part of DNA with the instructions for
molecular
machines that reduce stress.
The second are Cas, or “CRISPR-associated” proteins which chop up DNA like
molecular
scissors.
