Kohl, James V What is life when it is not protected from virus driven entropy The anti-entropic force of virucidal ultraviolet light (UV) links guanine–cytosine (G⋅C) Watson–Crick base pairing from hydrogen-atom transfer in DNA base pairs in solution to supercoiled DNA, which protects the organized genomes of all living genera from virus-driven entropy. For example, protection of DNA from permanent UV damage occurs in the context of photosynthesis and nutrient-dependent RNA-directed DNA methylation, which links RNA-mediated amino acid substitutions to DNA repair. In the context of thermodynamic cycles of protein biosynthesis and degradation, DNA repair enables the de novo creation of G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). Olfactory receptor genes are GPCRs. The de novo creation of olfactory receptor genes links chemotaxis and phototaxis from foraging behavior to social behavior in species from microbes to humans. Foraging behavior links ecological variation to ecological adaptation in the context of this atoms to ecosystems model of biophysically constrained energy-dependent RNA-mediated protein folding chemistry. Protein folding chemistry links nutrient-dependent microRNAs from microRNA flanking sequences to energy transfer and cell type differentiation in the context of adhesion proteins, and supercoiled DNA that protects all organized genomes from virus-driven entropy. virology/persistence and latency;Epigenetic Interactions Phenotypic integration patterns;Cell type specific expression;RNA bacteriophage;Biophysical Model;energy astrophysical scenarios;longevity-selected;pathology review features;latency-specific;Nutritional diseases;Animal Cell and Molecular Biology;Animal Physiology - Biophysics;Behavioral Neuroscience;Behavioural Ecology;Biological Adaptation;Ecological Physiology;Developmental Genetics (incl.
