Cell Biology: Scaling and the Emergence of Evolutionary Cell Biology
A new study investigating the origins of diversity in the structure of the mitotic spindle in nematode embryos, at timescales spanning a few generations to hundreds of millions of years, finds that most features of the spindle evolve via a scaling relationship generated by natural selection acting directly upon embryo size.
متن کاملEvolutionary cell biology: two origins, one objective.
All aspects of biological diversification ultimately trace to evolutionary modifications at the cellular level. This central role of cells frames the basic questions as to how cells work and how cells come to be the way they are. Although these two lines of inquiry lie respectively within the traditional provenance of cell biology and evolutionary biology, a comprehensive synthesis of evolution...

متن کاملIs Evolutionary Theory Central to Molecular Cell Biology?
The recent “Happy Birthday, Mr. Darwin” issue of Science (6 February 2009) celebrates evolution, the most unifying theory of biology. At the same time, this issue shows that molecular cell biology remains relatively untouched by evolutionary theory. Consider the fascinating studies of the STAT3 protein (Myers, 2009; Wegrzyn et al., 2009). This protein appears to have a dual function, on one han...
متن کاملEvolutionary cell biology: functional insight from "endless forms most beautiful".
In animal and fungal model organisms, the complexities of cell biology have been analyzed in exquisite detail and much is known about how these organisms function at the cellular level. However, the model organisms cell biologists generally use include only a tiny fraction of the true diversity of eukaryotic cellular forms. The divergent cellular processes observed in these more distant lineage...
