The biology and function of exosomes in cancer. [PDF]
Humans circulate quadrillions of exosomes at all times. Exosomes are a class of extracellular vesicles released by all cells, with a size range of 40-150 nm and a lipid bilayer membrane. Exosomes contain DNA, RNA, and proteins. Exosomes likely remove excess and/or unnecessary constituents from the cells, functioning like garbage bags, although their ...

Molecular biology II: protein function [PDF]
DNA may be viewed as the blueprint for the body, with mRNA/protein the component parts made from this blueprint. However, it is only when proteins are allowed to interact with each other and their surroundings that true biological complexity is achieved.

Abstract In 1966 Francis Crick declared that: “The ultimate aim of the modern movement in biology is to explain all biology in terms of physics and chemistry.” This motivated us to contemplate approaches that unify biology at a fundamental level. Exploration led us to consider the features of energy, entropy, and motion.

Metacognition: computation, biology and function [PDF]
Many complex systems maintain a self-referential check and balance. In animals, such reflective monitoring and control processes have been grouped under the rubric of metacognition. In this introductory article to a Theme Issue on metacognition, we review recent and rapidly progressing developments from neuroscience, cognitive psychology, computer ...
