First complete coronavirus model shows cooperation

First complete coronavirus model shows cooperation Frontera, Anton 2 supercomputers simulate holistic model of SARS-CoV-2 virion Supercomputers simulated a holistic model of the SARS-CoV-2 virion. The virus that causes COVID-19 holds many mysteries. Scientists remain in the dark on aspects of how it fuses and enters the host cell, and how it assembles and buds off the host cell. Computational modeling combined with experimental data provides insights into these behaviors. But modeling the dynamics of the SARS-CoV-2 virus over meaningful timescales has so far been limited to its pieces, such as the spike protein, a target for the current round of vaccines. A new multiscale coarse-grained model of the complete SARS-CoV-2 virion -- its core genetic material and shell -- has been developed for the first time using supercomputers. The model offers scientists new ways to exploit the virus's vulnerabilities. "We wanted to understand how SARS-CoV-2 works holistically as a

WHAT SHALL WE DO ?

The Rich, The Poor.    What shall we do ?                        Writer's name, Bankole kehinde John. I got to understand the two race of human;The Poor, The Rich in a five minutes stage playlet.  There is a known Biosphere, the biosphere is impregnated with different habitats. The habitat comprises of different species, the species are of different race; the strong and weak. There is a world ! The world has different countries with different continent! The continents are made of different human race! The human race are of different status, THE RICH,THE POOR. In the world, the rich thirst for more riches, In the world,the poor thirst to be richer, In the world,the rich never thirst nor desire to be poor, In the world,the poor are mentally fustrated of being poor, They are mentally and emotionally thriving to be rich, In the world,the rich never desire the poor to be rich nor to be richer, In the world, the poor desires the rich to set back nor to be more richer.  Hhhmm.

World's oldest DNA reveals how ice age mammoths evolved

World's oldest DNA reveals how ice age mammoths evolved Discovery of new lineage, insights into when and how fast mammoths adapted to cold climate The mammoth that inhabited North America during the last ice age was a hybrid animal. An international research team has sequenced DNA recovered from mammoth remains that are up to 1.2 million years old.  The analyses, funded in part by the U.S. National Science Foundation, show that the Columbian mammoth that inhabited North America during the last ice age was a hybrid between the woolly mammoth and a previously unknown genetic lineage of mammoth. The study also provides new insights into when and how fast mammoths became adapted to cold climate. The samples are a thousand times older than Viking remains and pre-date the existence of humans and Neanderthals, say the scientists. Around one million years ago, there were no woolly nor Columbian mammoths, as they had not yet evolved. Researchers have now managed to analyze the
