Recurring Design Logic in Operon Regulation

Arginine, bacteria, bacterial cell, bacterial systems, biology, biosynthesis, conformational change, DNA, enzymes, Evolution, evolutionary origins, genes, Intelligent Design, lactose, operons, recurring design logic, regulatory systems, repressor, RNA polymerase, sequence homology, stop codons, structural motif, superfamily, transcriptional hierarchies, tryptophan

As we see in these two examples, the design logic is the same. And yet, these two systems are not evolutionarily related to one another. Source

Engineered Complexity in the Microbial World

adaptations, bacteria, biology, Carolyn Hovde, Conference on Engineering in Living Systems, Dustin Van Hofwegen, E. coli, engineered complexity, Engineering, Evolution, evolutionary leap, genetic mechanisms, ID The Future, innovation, Intelligent Design, Jonathan Witt, Journal of Bacteriology, microbes, Podcast, Scott Minnich, University of Idaho

On a classic episode of ID the Future, host Jonathan Witt speaks with molecular biologist and professor Dustin Van Hofwegen about his research into the engineered complexity in microbial life. The two sat down at the yearly Conference on Engineering in Living Systems to discuss the event, which brings together biologists and engineers to study how engineering principles can be applied to living things, as well as Hofwegen’s article in the Journal of Bacteriology, co-authored with Carolyn Hovde and Scott Minnich, based on research conducted at the University of Idaho. Hofwegen shares his research on the famous decades-long E. coli evolution experiment conducted by Richard Lenski, which showed the sudden appearance of an ability to utilize citrate after many generations. However, Van Hofwegen’s own Read More › Source

A feature of biology that has struck me over the years is the phenomenon of recurring design logic, across systems that do not appear to be related by descent. Source
