Chapter One

Started mapping out the biology for chapter one. It will begin with entry level of some of the parts of the nucleus then switch over to Apoptosis and Necroptosis combining the three to make the plot being that Organelle was once a glorious world but the change in regime caused Organelle to fall. As I use the function of a T Cell to create the war


The structure of the nucleus includes nuclear membrane, chromosomes, nucleoplasm, and nucleolus

The agenda for today 

Going to map out the biology for chapter one 

The story follows levels of government as they fall into corruption. The function of a T Cell will be the warfare against that corruption 

8 Nov 2024

Important 

Each chapter I will arrange them in this order:

First I map out the biology and the psychology that will stay at the top of the page 

Followed by as many short stories as this platform will allow which would be a maximum of 98 posts 

I will start with one story per chapter then go back and add more

Also coming soon will be some writing prompts so people can show off their skills and leave a link to be contacted

The fight against corruption 

I’m mapping out Organelle’s anti corruption strategies, hard work!

Using the function of T Cells 

On the Inside 

each possesses a large nucleus with dense hetero-chromatin

Heterochromatin is a constituent

of eukaryotic genomes

with functions spanning from gene expression

silencing to constraining DNA replication and repair.

Inside the nucleus, heterochromatin segregates spatially from euchromatin

and is localized preferentially toward the nuclear periphery and surrounding the nucleolus.

and a cytoplasmic border 

The fluid inside a cell but outside the cell's nucleus


T cells contain large numbers of idling ribosomes that are rapidly engaged following activation to promote a translational switch

Outside intervention 

 pseudopodia are extensions used in movement and as a tool to capture prey

are extended by the cell in order to catch another cell or particles,

and the prey is held in place by the pseudopod. The prey is then engulfed by the T Cell and the process of phagocytosis begins:

The steps:

Detection of the Target Particle

Activation of the Internalization Process

Phagosome Formation

Phagosome Maturation

Phagocytosis-Associated Responses

Phagocytosis Efficiency

6 Nov 2024

Decided on a new direction 

The pages of this blog will be separated into chapters 

Taking the basic biology of a fair world, a corrupt one and the fight against corruption and associating it with psychology, creating an ideal mindset for each as they react to each other and shape the reality around them.

Necroptosis

Necroptosis is a type of programmed cell death that involves the translocation…

a genetic change

The process of making information appropriate has begun to change the nature of the people. They have started to have more and more personality disorders unlike what has been seen before in history. These issues the result of environmental conditioning

occurs when a piece of a chromosome breaks off and attaches to another chromosome

A snippet of one person’s culture is stripped away from them as it gets attached to a larger and more dare I say commercial culture. In entertainment this is done to sell products and misconceptions that are profitable 

Let’s revisit the parts of the chromosome 

Chromatids

Chromatids allow cells to store two copies of their DNA in preparation for cell division.

In a civilized society the information obtained by the DNA is used as instructions for designing new worlds and making sure the life is successful.

In Locket’s society the DNA is manipulated and used to create experimental creatures on young planets. Much like the story of the Anunnaki 

Telomeres

Telomeres prevent the ends of chromosomes from fraying, tangling, or degrading. 

Normally this would be about maintaining a culture’s integrity and not allowing what is sacred to become lost in commercialism. This has been changed to protect the regime and its reputation 

They also protect chromosomes from DNA damage, DNA end-joining, and accidental DNA recombination

The new “appropriate” DNA knowledge is still however carefully crafted so that it can be deemed acceptable and deceive the lower levels of government 

recombination

DNA recombination is the process of breaking and rejoining DNA segments to create new nucleotide sequences It's essential for generating genetic diversity and maintaining genome integrity

Exciting research in both societies however used for very different reasons. In Locket’s world the concept of this process is so the same information can be used over and over and seem like a new thing slowly brainwashing the people. Since Organelle has no income under the new regime this process is crucial 

Chromatin

Chromatin's main function is to condense DNA into a compact form that can fit within the nucleus of a cell.

All the knowledge acquired, as lengthy as it is, is to be put into compact form and to be stored away where only top government officials can access. The information is for the eyes of the elites only and only the appropriate information is to be released.

Histones

Histones strengthen DNA to allow replication help control gene activity

There’s a group of people who do this as a job as they prepare the information to be put into the vault. The examine the information and organize it in a way to make it the most convincing to then be reproduced into a law similar to religious dogma 

Kinetochore

The kinetochore acts as a signaling hub to regulate the cell cycle

A military base that is used for surveillance of everyone to make sure they are behaving in a way that follows the world’s development as it goes through it’s cycles of cultural attitudes 

Telomeric proteins

To grant the power to the high elites by stabilizing their position of power and to bring certain cultural norms to an end 

or when pieces from two different chromosomes trade places.

An exchange where the social laws of one culture is traded with another and they call it progress. After the exchange each culture puts their own spin on the new social norms 

and a process in protein synthesis..

Which includes:

Transcription

where genetic instructions from DNA are transferred to mRNA in the nucleus

What is mRNA?

mRNA stands for messenger RNA and it’s function being the process of transferring genetic information from DNA into a cell

The knowledge that was gained is repurposed into instructions for a global system of government 

Translation

Translation is the process of converting genetic information in RNA into functional proteins

Proteins provide structure and support for cells Some proteins act as chemical messengers

The information in the RNA in a fair society would be used to shape the curriculum in education. Instead it is being used as a means to fund the government and to monitor communication of citizens 

Elongation

 a biological process that involves the addition of amino acids to a growing chain

Attaching details acquired elsewhere to a written order of expected behaviour 

Termination

the end of transcription or translation, or the process of ending cellular signaling

The discontinuation of new knowledge being brought to education and instead have these institutions to program the youth to consume more products and to give them the same message over and over rearranged to appear on the surface as a new thing 

…of signaling proteins to the nucleus

Lower levels of power take concerns to the secondary elite since they cannot contact the high elite 

Following necroptosis induction, 


RIPK3 is activated 

What is RIPK3?

an enzyme that is a vital component of necrosomes,

Being Fas-associated protein

Fas-associated death domain:

is an adapter protein that connects the Fas-receptor

to procaspases 8 and 10

to form the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC)

with death domain leading to activation of the pseudokinase

 a protein kinase that lacks the ability to catalyze reactions,

but still plays a role in cell signaling

also known as signal transduction, is the process by which cells communicate with each other and their environment

mixed lineage kinase

Or MLK is a protein kinase that is part of the mitogen-activated protein or MAP

enzymes that regulate cellular responses to stimuli, such as heat shock

followed by a rapid plasma membrane rupture

and inflammatory response through the release of damage-associated molecular patterns and cytokines

small proteins that are crucial in controlling the growth and activity of other immune system cells like T Cells 

which trigger caspase-independent programmed necrosis

occurs when caspases are not activated

a family of enzymes that are central to apoptosis

cysteine proteases

that cleave proteins

after an aspartic acid residue. 

This process leads to changes in cell morphology

MLKL is activated in the nucleus,

What is MLKL?

the terminal protein in the pro-inflammatory necroptotic cell death program

Necroptosis is a type of programmed cell death that is similar to necrosis, but is caspase-independent.

It's governed by the receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIP1),

regulates the decision between cell death and survival

RIP3,

RIP3 is a vital part of the necrosome, a signaling complex

that triggers caspase-independent programmed necrosis. 

Necroptosis is activated by pattern recognition receptors

and death receptor ligands from the innate immune system

and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL).

the terminal protein in the pro-inflammatory necroptotic cell death program

and after their cooperative nuclear export,

they contribute to cytosolic necrosome formation.

Consequently, the export of RIPK3 and MLKL from the nucleus to the cytosol

Apoptosis

The nuclear events occurring during apoptosis include changes at the molecular level (i.e. DNA cleavage,

A reaction that severs one of the covalent sugar-phosphate linkages between NUCLEOTIDES that compose the sugar phosphate backbone of DNA

One of the first things done beyond the information border is the manipulation of the knowledge that was gained in order to make it “Appropriate” a mutated form of the message is created called splicing. This is something that is regarded as extremely illegal as it involves “cutting and rearranging” the message

modifications of nuclear polypeptides,

 a single-stranded chain

The information has been reduced to a biased version of what was originally there the other viewpoints censored and only one interpretation is now allowed. Completely unacceptable and an insult but, this is what the new regime does, not only to extraterrestrials but to the lower levels of government. A completely controlled society. It is a fact that an ignorant society is easily manipulated and by controlling what they know you can control their opinions and beliefs without them really knowing.

and proteolysis of several proteins important for cell maintenance

the breakdown of proteins into smaller polypeptides or amino acids

The new regime demands that society is to be conditioned to be less intelligent and too apathetic  to take any action 

and, consequently, alterations at the morphological level

 the internal structure of words

Changes are to be made in the language people use, how they form relationships, every aspect of their lives controlled. Under the illusion that they are making choices when really they’re only able to comprehend the information that has been fed to them

chromatin condensation,

a reduction of volume due to a spatial organization into densely packed higher-order structures

This manipulation and control is handled by the high elite. It has been decided to make the information as short as possible and condition the people to have shorter attention spans and more impatient 

spatial being your ability to see and understand the relationships between shapes, spaces, and areas.

nuclear shrinkage,

The inner circle of world leaders that are aware of what is going on and are on board with the new regime gets smaller as even nations who are known for corruption want nothing to do with this. They have thrown up their hands and said absolutely not! We want no part in this!

and DNA fragmentation

DNA fragmentation is the process of DNA strands breaking apart into smaller pieces fragmentation gradually accumulates in a cell

Society is conditioned through the consumption of media to have shorter and shorter attention spans and consumption of media that is designed to make society as a whole less intelligent. Everything in the culture is to be shorter and faster, if you look at modern society and social media you will see what I mean 

The four stages of apoptosis are:

induction,

The two main pathways of apoptosis are extrinsic

not part of the essential nature of someone or something; coming or operating from outside

People are encouraged more and more to ignore their instincts while an agenda is pieced together outside the realm of mainstream society 

and intrinsic

As well as intruding on people’s personal lives 

as well as a perforin/granzyme pathway.

essential components of the cytotoxic granules

Creating a toxic environment for those who would otherwise thrive deeming them as either broken or a “problem” in society 

present in cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells.

Attempts to destroy those who follow the anti corruption movements with humiliation and alienation 

Each requires specific triggering signals to begin an energy-dependent cascade of molecular events

With the information gathered from monitoring the public begins the perpetual “War on (fill in the blank)” in the name of public safety as people’s freedoms are slowly stripped away 

early phase,

Cells become smaller, with a denser cytoplasm and more tightly packed organelles

The energy of the world becomes “heavier” as there is more negativity than ever while the population explodes 

translocation

moves to the outer leaf of the plasma membrane

The cry for help of the public has reached ET’s as the world is at a breaking point 

Signaling molecules downstream of the death receptors are activated

Elites on the lower levels are given the order to issue lockdowns each of them stricter than the last 
pathway activation

The anti corruption movements organize and are ready for the most important war

mid phase

The mid phase is when the intrinsic and extrinsic apoptosis pathways converge.

The agenda of ET’s takes the side of the public who don’t want this regime as acceptable and together they will not stand for it 

late phase

The late stage of apoptosis is characterized by DNA fragmentation(karyorrhexis), which starts upon completion of nuclear condensation 

The world itself begins to rebel and “bleed” toxic substances

The High Elite 

Taking the normal function of the nucleolus and reversing it. Evil is live backwards.


in a way that relates to the structure and form the nucleoli consist of three distinguishable regions:

the fibrillar center,

 a sub-compartment of most metazoan nucleoli

A small group outside of the realm of government,  beyond all laws and responsibilities, they yet have ownership over countless worlds.

The transcription of..  

the process by which a cell makes an RNA copy of a piece of DNA.

What is RNA?

Unlike DNA, RNA is most often single-stranded

They like to use gene splicing in the name of Gain of Function research…

A gain-of-function mutation is a genetic lesion that causes the normal product of a gene to be expressed inappropriately (at abnormally high levels and/or at the wrong time or location), or to acquire a new abnormal function through alteration of the gene product itself.

…and artificial selection, an evolutionary process in which humans consciously select for or against particular features in organisms. Why do this? Because they have the power to not be punished for it. The creatures artificially created are often subjected to horrific experiments

ribosomal RNA (rRNA)

What are ribosomes?

 A ribosome is an intercellular structure…

The high elite do not work directly with other entities they however make all the decisions on what creatures are to be a success on the intergalactic stage 

made of both RNA and protein,

The institutions that have been set in place are to no longer study RNA that is already in existence but to instead create their own versions of this information into new creatures in a lab. What is disturbing is also Locket’s attitude towards eugenics and her approving this practice in experiments. In the name of population control she has ordered the CREATION of disability, disease and deformity because a sickly population is a compliant one.

and it is the site of protein synthesis in the cell. 

The steps to this are: 

initiation,

the first step in the process of gene expression,

the process by which the information encoded in a gene is turned into a function

New functions in the bodies and brains of these creatures have been created for experimentation as their DNA is edited to “correct” the information 

where the necessary components assemble at the start site of a gene to begin transcription or translation

The “appropriate” information has been assembled into new creatures

elongation,

The acquired knowledge that has always gone unedited is now mostly classified and secretive. Both insulting and infuriating to extraterrestrials who have been a long time customer 

and termination.

Termination is the ending of transcription, and occurs when RNA polymerase crosses a stop (termination) sequence in the gene

This process no longer happens naturally and requires intervention 

The ribosome reads the messenger RNA (mRNA)

carry protein information from the DNA in a cell's nucleus to the cell's cytoplasm

The information that was once decoded and sent off to extraterrestrials to elaborate has been put to a halt

sequence and translates that genetic code into a specified string of amino acids, which grow into long chains that fold to form proteins.

The use of this information to further education has also been stopped and the Gain of Function is focused on developing ways to scale back the intelligence of the population 

2 structures that are found in all nucleoli

dense fibrillar component,

 A structure found in the nucleolus, which contains newly synthesized preribosomal RNA (pre-rRNA) and a collection of proteins.

All the information that has been acquired over the years has been ordered to be destroyed and institutions dedicated to its study to be shut down 

and granular component

the rRNA is assembled with ribosomal proteins to form nearly completed preribosomal subunits, ready for export to the cytoplasm

What was once the process of import and export of knowledge has now been discontinued until there is payment

The creature in the video is Bob. 

Spoiler Alert:

Bob was an abomination in Satellite City and will continue to be an abomination in my story as well.

Is Bob cute? Of course! He’s adorable! But cute don’t cut it!

Getting ideas for my first story

Wexle and Methusa’s relationship soured


Wexle and her people have been an ally to Organelle (this world) for tens of thousands of years unfortunately the change in regime could end this.


The story begins as Methusa and Wexle are walking down a long hallway together, their business being to exchange monthly reports. Methusa hands over the documents to Wexle. “Hmmm something doesn’t feel right this time, Methusa looks nervous” Wexle thinks to herself. She decides not to risk it and asks if she can look over the document once more. Methusa does her best to contain her fear and says “Yes. Yes of course”. Wexle takes out a pair of AI powered glasses, as they scan through the information Wexle stops walking. “This report is not mathematically correct something is missing?”

Methusa is panicking inside “The information is appropriate” Wexle looks at her and says “What do you mean by appropriate exactly?” Methusa’s face goes dead as she has to deliver this news “There has been an information border placed ordered by the regime”. Wexle glares at her, furious. “We have been allies for thousands of years and our reports given to you have always been explicit and unedited. We expect the same in return. If you want to keep us as allies we expect competence. We will give you a month to clean up your act and expect an unaltered report. Is that clear?!” Methusa fighting to hold back tears pleads for Wexle to understand she is just following orders. As they part ways Wexle says to her “There will be consequences if you don’t, you could lose a powerful ally and gain an adversary. DNA is our business Methusa how do you expect us to unlock the mystery of our creator by censoring crucial information? Answer me that!” Methusa begins to sob. Wexle is throughly disappointed and leaves Methusa behind. “You are breaking intergalactic and inter dimensional law Methusa DNA editing is highly illegal! If this is to be repeated.. enjoy your Idolism as you permanently slip into the dark ages!” Wexle storms off.

The agenda for today 

Writing an article for the page The Gathering where I will take the nucleus and apply sociology and possibly psychology as well 

26 Oct 2024

The Nucleus 

By housing the cell's complete set of DNA the nucleus serves both as the repository of genetic information…

The information is kept in a secure library with highly sensitive information 

and as the cell's control center.

Globalization is an ongoing process that involves interconnected changes in the economic, cultural, social, and political spheres of society. As a process, it involves the ever-increasing integration of these aspects between nations, regions, communities, and even seemingly isolated places.

DNA replication,

Replication occurs in three major steps: the opening of the double helix and separation of the DNA strands,

Assimilation

The process whereby members of a group give up parts of their own culture in order to blend in to a new culture.

 Division of Labour

refers to dividing work into a series of tasks assigned to different people or groups. It is also defined as “a concept referring to the internal organisation of a society or social group.” 

the priming of..

social priming

refers to the idea that subtle cues can exert large, unconscious influences on behaviour

The different groups of elites have their own key words, phrases and body language that only certain members of the community can pick up on and understand. This type of communication is passed down to other powerful people

the template strand,

material used as a pattern for processes 

and the assembly of the new DNA segment

transcription, and RNA processing all take place within the nucleus


the nucleus is made up of several components: nuclear envelope,

The nuclear envelope separates the contents of the nucleus from the cytoplasm

An “Information border” to secure sensitive information and hold power 

allows small molecules and ions to freely pass,

or diffuse,

also known as cultural diffusion, is a social process through which elements of culture spread from one society or social group to another

into or out of the nucleus

nuclear lamina,

The nuclear lamina is responsible for nuclear and chromatin organization,

planned, coordinated and purposeful action to construct or compile a common tangible or intangible product

cell cycle regulation,

Any process that controls the series of events 

Agenda-setting theory

suggests that the communications media, through their ability to identify and publicize issues, play a pivotal role in shaping the problems that attract attention from governments and international organizations, and direct public opinion towards specific issues.

It is a known fact that to really change the world you need to change what entertains it

cell development and differentiation,

The growth and development of the world as it goes through social change and aiding the growth and development of new young worlds

nuclear migration,

an active process. It is important for an assortment of cellular and developmental processes

Developing the education system to prepare the youth for the social development in their society at every level 

regulated by intracellular..

Within all levels of the world from high elite to the public 

and extracellular signals.

With the influence of extraterrestrial communication between elites of both worlds. This communication is essential in the development of what is to be considered education 

chromosomes,

Chromosomes allow DNA to be accurately copied during these cell divisions.

The knowledge shared between worlds is to be unaltered and each world having an exact copy of the information 

This ensures that our inner workings proceed smoothly and efficiently.

The parts of a chromosome are:

chromatids,

Chromatids are formed during chromosome duplication, which occurs prior to cell division parts of a Chromatid:

Telomeres are short orderly repeats of the basic building blocks of DNA and RNA at the ends of chromosomes. 

The information that is developed has to be mathematically sound 

As DNA is sticky, Telomeres prevent one chromosome from binding to another

To keep the information from binding in areas it shouldn’t 

centromere,

a constricted region of a chromosome and plays a key role in helping the cell divide up its DNA 

A place of business where highly classified information that has been exchanged between two species is analyzed 

To summarize:

There is a business of trade between worlds, a trade of culture shifting information done in reports. DNA is the business and the knowledge it possesses, the world I’m calling “Organelle” is extremely rich with it. Valuable to ET’s the information in the reports are taken home and divided into its appropriate forms. As the information is distributed it is done in a way only the appropriate people will understand.
