Evolution since Coding: Cradles, Halos, Cloverleafs, and Wings describes genesis of metabolism, transcription, translation, cell structure, eukaryotic complexity, LUCA (the last universal common (cellular) ancestor), LECA (the last eukaryotic common ancestor) and cancer in very conceptual and simple ways. The work synthesizes life from scratch and provides simple tools for readers to check the author's work. As a result, readers understand living systems and their evolution in a conceptual way, as well as being introduced to computer-based biology. It serves as foundational reading for a variety of researchers, academics, and students in life sciences, for example in evolution/evolutionary biology, biochemistry, genetics/molecular genetics, molecular biology, cell biology, and microbiology, as well as disciplines beyond biological science. Its approachable style makes the book accessible for even an introductory student or educated layperson to understand, and can also be used to supplement college courses from freshman to senior level. Provides a simple, hands-on, conceptual route to understanding ancient evolution and the diversification of life on earthOffers a conceptual understanding of biology, evolution, protein structure, RNA synthesis systems, protein synthesis systems, signalling systems, genesis of the three domains, and cell structuresCovers the evolution of transcription systems and promoters, of translation systems, and of the three domains of life on earth INDICE: 1.
