“Chemically linked to proteins and lipids on the cell surface, glycans direct communication and the exchange of materials between cells; they guide immune responses and substantially affect a cell’s functions and growth; they’re exploited by disease-causing viruses and other pathogens to gain entry. Glycans attach to biomolecules in every living creature”

It seems to me that in Cell Biology / Development / Genetics the "candidate gene approach" has become pretty much standard. Can anyone direct me to a paper (review, commentary, theory), discussing the basis, and the pros and cons of this approach? Asking for a friend...

It can be a bit disappointing when the mutant is just like the wild-type, but one can look at the bright side, it's just as beautiful as the wild-type. #DevBio #DevelopmentalBiology #CellBiology #CellBio #AsymmetricCellDivision #Celegans #Embryo

#introduction. I am a plant developmental geneticist. The lab addresses a fundamental biological question: how does morphogenesis translate genotype into form? To this end we study signaling at the plasma membrane - cell wall interface and we investigate how mechanical forces influence tissue shape using 3D digital ovules.

Let me rant about #condensates a propos this commentary👇. IMHO it illustrates a lot of the things that are wrong in #biology. From the top we are told "researchers are trying to work out how these ubiquitous beads form and what they do" [the condensates]. I would argue the first question should be "do they do anything?", but biologists abandoned 'Ockham's razor' long ago. The most parsimonious explanation would be condensates have no function... 1/n
