John Glass, a senior microbiologist in the synthetic biology group at the J. Craig Venter Institute in Rockville, Maryland, puts it this way:
If you can imagine a set of genes that will program a
cell to do something — anything — then you can make them «at a reasonable cost and test your hypothesis... so it will be possible to attempt to design
organisms that have extraordinary properties to solve human needs.»
If this environment is harmed by chemicals, such as through damage to gut
cells, it could impact the health of the
organisms and would lead to a number of fish diseases but this technique will enable us to increase the tests we can carry out and improve our understanding of how to preserve gut health.»

organisms require fatty acids for their
cell membrane to survive,
if you rob them of some fatty acids, they turn up the fatty acid biosynthesis to make up for the depletion.»
If an engineered
organism mates with a wild counterpart, the transcription factors render the offspring unable to survive by activating genes that cause their
cells to die.
The study involved extracting Ribonucleic acid or RNA — found in the
cells of all living
organisms — to develop a transcriptome — the gene readouts in a
cell — to examine what occurs during the different developmental stages of the cockroach pregnancy and to explore
if those changes hold wider applications for other mammals.
Both scenarios are possible, considering that single -
celled organisms can likely survive world - shattering impacts and the subsequent interplanetary voyages

If you could take a
cell from any
organism — an alga, giant sequoia, condor, or your second cousin — and dive through its membrane into its clear liquid cytoplasm interior, you would find that all life as we know it shares the same building blocks.
If nothing else, the Cellbox experiment should reveal the properties of the
cell architecture that depend on Earth's gravitational force — and whether gravity might be a key prerequisite for the existence of multicellular

If we can develop ways to manipulate this and encourage the white blood
cells to recognise and expel
organisms like this, we might be able to limit the spread of infection not only for Cryptococcosis but for other invasive pathogens that are a significant threat to human health world - wide.»
If the focus is on an
organism (genetics,
cell biology, physiology, evolution, etc.), then BIOLOGY.
The point is subtle, however:
if aging is damage, there are many ways to generate
cell and tissue damage in a living
organism that have no particular relevance to aging, even though they also result in disability and death.
To see
if those effects might explain the link between paraquat, aging, and PD in living
organisms, the team turned to genetically altered mice that the Campisi lab had developed for senescent

Yet we are dismayed by his disregard for the most basic scientific findings regarding the human embryo, namely, that from the single -

As you mention the microbiome yourself, I am wondering
if you have researched probiotics, soil based
