Betwixt Gene and Behavior (commentary on the Paper
نویسنده
چکیده
A gene is a macromolecule which codes for the structure of a protein. Lehninger (1967) points out, "The ascent from simple self-assembling systems such as oligomeric proteins and enzyme complexes to the level of supramolecular organization of subcellular organelles is a very steep one. In making it we cross a boundary to a level of organization at which the self-assembly principle doubtless operates in microscopic regions, but cannot account for the biogenesis of the organelle," (p. 91). The ascent from gene to behavior is precarious indeed.
