Charles Darwin (Feb. 12, 1809 – Apr. 19, 1882)
“Probably all the organic beings which have ever lived on this earth have descended from some one primordial form, into which life was first breathed, ” Darwin: On the Origin of Species (1859)
細胞的演化 • LUCA: 第一個原核細胞 (prokaryotes) –Bacteria –Archaeal – 如何從環境中取得食物? LUCA Tree of life (based on 16 S r. RNA sequences)
How bacteria and archaeal diverged from LUCA ?
differences of membrane lipid between bacteria and archaeal
Bacteria versus Archaeal
Classification of bacteria by dye staining
What message we learn from such difference? LUCA apparently did not have a membrane comparable to that in either modern archaea or bacteria. The bubbly mineral cells have their own inorganic walls, which were lined in some regions by hydrothermally synthesized lipids – that were eventually replaced by enzymatically derived lipid membranes, independently, in the archaeal and eubacterial stem lineages.
細胞的演化 • 18 -20 億年前 – 一個全新的生命型態 – 真核細胞 eukaryotes – 如何從環境中取得食物? LUCA Is Eucarya independently evolved from Archaea and Bacteria?
Targets of Antibiotics
Strategy to Escape • Antibiotics resistant gene – Digesting enzyme – Increase exporter protein • To change the structure of targets (archaeal) – Ribosome (r. RNA and ribosomal proteins) – RNA polymerase • To take alternative way to increase strength of the cell membrane – Lost cell wall – Invention of cytoskeleton
真核細胞 (eukaryotes): Lost cell wall and Cytoskeleton under the plasma membrane
Origin of nucleus
F: food vacuole L: lysosome 柔軟的外套: 吞噬作用(phagocytosis)

From left, a choanoflagellate colony, feeding cells of sponges that resemble choanoflagellates and a choanoflagellate with its long flagellum and collar of filaments.
• One hypothesis for origin of animals from a flagellated protist suggests that a colony of identical cells evolved into a hollow sphere. • The cells of this sphere then specialized, creating two or more layers of cells.
Solution
生物學:一亇帶着歷史經驗的科學 “Any living cell carries with it the experiences of a billion years of experimentation by its ancestors” “ A physicist looks at biology” Max Delbruck, 1949
"Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution. " T. Dobzhansky 1900 - 1975.
• Project 523 (May 23, 1967)—set out to battle chloroquine-resistant malaria • In early 1969, Tu was appointed head of the Project 523 research group at China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Beijing • By 1971, her team had made 380 extracts from 200 herbs. The researchers then assessed whether these substances could clear Plasmodia from the bloodstream of mice infected with the parasite. • One of the extracts looked particularly promising: Material from Qinghao • October 1981, Professor Tu, invited to present her work at a meeting sponsored by the World Health Organization
