Virus-driven downsizing of the human brain (3) (8/9/16) Virus-driven downsizing of the human brain (4) (4/23/17) Who the heck is James V. Kohl? Thanks for asking. Posted by u/Sphinx_for_hire 3 months ago I’m in biochemistry/toxicology and was reading up on LUCA (aka Last Universal Common Ancestor). While Googling the work of Nick Lane, I stumbled upon the following page absolutely flaying Lane’s and others’ LUCA theories. This guy, James V. Kohl, has many websites in which he writes about human…

Yesterday, on the topic of vaccines used to prevent Ebola virus transmission, I wrote: …. There is no such thing as an extinct virus. Their ability to steal energy is biophysically constrained until nutrient stress and/or social stress cause their reactivation. I provided a link to The Darwin Code Today, I read about The misleading evidence that fooled scientists for decades After posting this comment to “The Conversation,” I learned I was blocked from posting anything to Facebook. Have you considered…

Summary: No ecosystems exist at any level of examination outside the context of the anti-entropic virucidal energy of light-activated endogenous substrates in all cell types of all living genera. The quantized energy-dependent creation of nucleotides links the creation of sunlight to fixation of energy in every organism on Earth.  Fixation of the energy is microRNA-mediated. The energy-dependent creation of microRNAs has been linked to healthy longevity via direct effects on organized genomes. For example, microRNAs typically biophysically constrain viral latency.…

Summary: These findings reveal a new GLU biosynthetic pathway, which could contribute to some of the sunlight-induced neurobehavioral changes. The claims about new biosynthetic pathways should be placed into the context of what is known about the energy-dependent origin of all pathways. Researchers may have solved origin-of-life conundrum …the conditions that produce nucleic acid precursors also create the starting materials needed to make natural amino acids and lipids. That suggests a single set of [light activated] reactions could have given…

Summary: The pseudoscientific nonsense about abiogenesis that has been touted by Karo Michaelian and others like him has caused the unnecessary suffering and premature death of millions to billions of people by placing the pathogenic consequences of deregulated miRNAs into the context of ridiculous theories. See for comparison: Structural diversity of supercoiled DNA and the parody from the same research group: ——————————- Abiogenesis (2017) Microscopic dissipative structuring and proliferation at the origin of life (Oct 13, 2017) Some fundamental molecules…

See Sci-Bay Scholar for citations and downloads of more than 3300 published works that link viruses to microRNAs Summary: …either the organized genomes of all cell types use the energy source, or viruses use the biophysically constrained energy of the cell types. No extant species can be used as an example of how the virus-driven theft of quantized energy can be linked from natural selection to the evolution of a new species.

Novel Treatment Strategies for the Nervous System: Circadian Clock Genes, Non-coding RNAs, and Forkhead Transcription Factors Each of these pathways have an intimate relationship with the programmed death pathways of autophagy and apoptosis and share a common link to the silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1 (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) (SIRT1) and the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR). Circadian clock genes are necessary to modulate autophagy, limit cognitive loss, and prevent neuronal injury. Non-coding RNAs can control neuronal stem cell…

Conceptual critique: Innateness vs the death gene (1)

Summary: The term innate is used in psychological explanations. The so-called explanations ignore facts about the light energy-dependent activation of endogenous substrates. The anti-entropic virucidal energy of sunlight links the endogenous substrates to biophysically constrained viral latency and healthy longevity via the physiology of reproduction in all living genera. “Proximate mechanisms” and “evolution” are terms used by biologically uninformed theorists. That fact becomes perfectly clear in the context of  The conceptual critique of innateness (paywalled) One proposal is that innateness can…
