Understanding how cells sense gases or gaseous solutes is a fundamental question in biology and pivotal for the evolution of molecular organismal life. In numerous organisms, can diffuse into cells, be transported, generated, sensed. Controlling cellular environment essential to prevent damage due interactions with gas-dependent free radicals. Consequently, mechanisms governing acute gas sensing are evolutionarily conserved have been experimentally elucidated various organisms. However, scientific literature on direct largely based hemoprotein-based gasoreceptors (or sensors). As RNA-based G-quadruplex (G4) structures also bind heme, I propose that some ribozymes contain associated heme-binding G4 act as gas-sensing riboceptors (ribonucleic acid receptors). Additionally, present few other ideas non-heme metal ion- cluster-based riboceptors. Studying help understand evolutionary origins environmental sensing, gasocrine signaling, interspecies communication.

Abstract Sugars are one of the major metabolites and essential for nucleic acid synthesis energy production. In addition, sugars can act as signaling molecules. To study sugar at systemic level, there is an urgent need to systematically identify sugar‐sensing proteins acids. I propose terms “swodkoreceptor” “swodkocrine signaling,” derived from Polish word “słodki” meaning “sweet,” comprise all events, respectively, regardless their cellular location domains. This proposal intended facilitate inclusion such Escherichia coli LacI repressor allolactose receptor, human glucokinase regulatory protein (GCKR) a fructose other sugar‐binding based allosterically regulated enzymes transcription factors receptors. enzyme‐interacting whose interaction state by binding have also been proposed The protein‐ nucleic‐acid‐based swodkoreceptors may help organelle‐specific address receptor duality. intra‐ inter‐organism swodkocrine its crosstalk with gasocrine understand etiology diseases due dysregulation in homeostasis signaling.
