Cells are the building blocks of life. Cells are the smallest fundamental units of an organism from microbes to high level living beings humans. Millions of Cells make up an organ ,which form multi cellular organism. But the scientists are till now unable to interpret how building blocks are found and how they paved a way for life.a notable discovery been made which could change the face of cellular biology by ireland scientists.
Researchers led by a team from ireland said for the first time they have mapped the nature's big bang when two cells fused into one living organism. Scientists claim they had found how they fused to form multi cellular organism. They called this as "nature's bigbang",evolution of life.
As big bang suggests the evolution of universe. A team of scientists led by irish university professor Dr McInerney With cambridge university's james cotton have been researching on cells from 10 years . According to them single cell bacteria , single cell arkian fused to give birth to yeast . From which insects ,plants animals have evoluted.
Dr McInerney said: "Essentially, you had an organism, like the Minotaur in ancient Greece, and this, in biological terms is what we hypothesised was the common ancestor of all eukaryotic life.
"Because humans are eukaryotes, we were, in essence, trying to trace the deepest human ancestor." Dr McInerney collaborated with Dr James Cotton at the Sanger Institute in Cambridge to make the discovery, which is published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
