Amazing geometry of genetic space or are genetic algorithms convergent? [PDF]
arXiv, 2005 There is no proof yet of convergence of Genetic Algorithms. We do not supply it too. Instead, we present some thoughts and arguments to convince the Reader, that Genetic Algorithms are essentially bound for success. For this purpose, we consider only the crossover operators, single- or multiple-point, together with selection procedure.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

Efforts and Challenges in Engineering the Genetic Code
Life, 2017 This year marks the 48th anniversary of Francis Crick’s seminal work on the origin of the genetic code, in which he first proposed the “frozen accident” hypothesis to describe evolutionary selection against changes to the genetic code that cause ...

The Triplet Genetic Code had a Doublet Predecessor [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology 233 (2005) 527-532, 2004 Information theoretic analysis of genetic languages indicates that the naturally occurring 20 amino acids and the triplet genetic code arose by duplication of 10 amino acids of class-II and a doublet genetic code having codons NNY and anticodons $\overleftarrow{\rm GNN}$. Evidence for this scenario is presented based on the properties of aminoacyl-tRNA

Genetic engineering in athletes [PDF]
BMJ, 2008 Athletes who want to maximise their performance are continually tempted to use illegal drugs to gain competitive advantage and to aid recovery from training and injuries. Recent revelations of widespread doping arising from investigations of the distributionof the anabolic steroid tetrahydrogestrinone by the American company BALCO (Bay Area Laboratory ...

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (
