Rotavirus research: 2014-2020 7/2/21

A temperature sensitive mutant… in the triplet encoding amino acid 138 of VP1 (L138P)…was separately expressed as a… protein, shown to interact with viroplasm-like particles (VLPs) in uninfected cells and to synthesize RNA in vitro…”

My summary: The rotavirus steals the energy required for the ATP-dependent synthesis of RNA, which typically biophysically constrains viral latency across kingdoms. Contextual constraints occur via light-activated carbon fixation, oxidative phosphorylation and RNA interference (RNAi).
RNAi links pheromone-regulated genetic processes and the physiology of reproduction to healthy longevity in species from microbes to humans. Plant growth linked to what organisms eat is the key to the Creation of RNAi.
Rotavirus research has shown that viruses steal the food energy that sustains healthy longevity at every level of examination from changes in angstroms to ecosystems.
Luis P. Villarreal did not understand why I failed to include information on the evolution of the vomeronasal organ (VMO) in what he referred to as “The Kohl Papers.” Had he linked the virus-driven degradation of messenger RNA from mutations to all pathology, he would know why intelligent serious scientists do not base their claims on stupid theories. For differences between stupid theories and facts about biophysically constrained viral latency, see the links to additional presenters during this conference.

Note, Koonin, Krupovic, and other theorists have been forced to abandon their stupid theories because bacterial and archaeal adaptive immunity is energy-dependent and innate.

Data that have emerged in the last 15 years suggest that like its role in defining cell-specific phenotype during development, DNA methylation might be involved in defining experiential identities, programming similar genes to perform differently in response to diverse experiential histories.

What is Life? 3/18/20

…new nucleotide sequences now appear to have originated from social agents such as viruses, their parasitic relatives, and related RNA networks, not from errors.

A new definition of life must integrate the current empirical knowledge about interactions between cells, viruses, and RNA networks to provide a better explanatory power than the twentieth century narrative.
