Molecular Biology may be Changed by the Image Shown Below.
After years of wondering why water is so important for life, the answer may be that natural molecules are spatial analogues of the order/disorder environment in which they evolved. Although ice-like cubic structuring in water on lipid and poly-ionic surfaces (as shown on the left) lasts only about a million millionth of a second, it produced natural molecules in evolution with surfaces which induce hydration order in specific regions. As molecules and ions approach each other in the living cell, it is those regions which guide them into unique functional associations. Read on to see how.
The article below is A Story of the Evolution of the Molecules of Life based on the premise that water forms transient linear elements of hydration in cubic conformations on lipid surfaces. The Hypothesis was introduced in 1991 in "The Matrix of Life" and, since then, has received validation by the discovery, based on 4D ultra-high-speed electron crystallography, that water does, indeed, form transient linear elements in cubic conformations on both lipid and poly-ionic surfaces.
