"Browser-Based Simulation of Cellular Biology"
Researchers have simulated a "minimal" cell with 493 genes in TypeScript to run in a web browser, aiming to reproduce the JCVI-syn3A bacteria's behavior. The simulation models DNA transcription, mRNA translation, metabolic reactions, and more using chemical and differential equations. While the current simulation lacks cell cycle mechanics and runs on a single thread, it presents an intriguing intersection of in-depth biology and complex simulations, with potential for performance improvements and further development.
