Computer model of sexually transmitted bacteria
Stanford University modeled computer simulations of a sexually transmitted virus. Mycoplasma genitalia causes urethritis and cervical inflammation, as well as pelvic inflammatory disease, of very small size.
Stanford University modeled computer simulations of a sexually transmitted virus.
Mycoplasma genitalia causes urethritis and cervicitis, as well as pelvic inflammatory disease, which is very small in size, with only 525 genes, much less than the 20,500 genes in humans.

This bacterium has been collected by 900 researchers at Stanford University and is building a model of genetic structure and mechanism, each containing 28 cellular processes such as replication. DNA and cell division. Then, scientists put these models together to simulate an entire cell.
This achievement opens the door to the creation of more complex virtual creatures, capable of promoting research, creating creatures with computer models. At the same time using organisms through computer models can help researchers test their imaginations and compare their results with what they see in living organisms.
In particular, these 'virtual creatures' could help scientists discover many other biological phenomena, said Markus Covert, professor of biotechnology at Stanford.
