P-VIR-1 · FOT Classification of Pathogens
| Pathogen | FOT classification | Tau-address relationship |
|---|---|---|
| Virus | Tau-parasite | Has Tau-address (genome) but no Tau-register; hijacks host Strand 1 without Strand 2 |
| Bacterium | Proto-Tau-organism | Circular DNA = closed Tau-loop; own register; competes with host |
| Prion | Tau-misfolding agent | Protein locked in wrong Strand configuration; propagates misfold |
| Fungus | Tau-register squatter | Establishes competing G1 register within host tissue |
| Macro-parasite | Tau-address thief | Uses host Tau-medium at host's expense |
P-VIR-2 · Viral Replication as Tau-Hijacking
A virus is a Tau-address (genome) with no Strand 2 regulatory machinery, packaged for delivery into a host G1 register. The host Strand 1 machinery executes the viral programme because it cannot distinguish a foreign Tau-address from a legitimate host instruction set.
P-VIR-3 · RNA Viruses and Tau-Address Instability
RNA is single-stranded (Strand 1 only). Without Strand 2 stabilisation, the RNA Tau-address drifts — producing the 10,000× higher mutation rate of RNA vs DNA viruses.
P-VIR-4 · Prions as Tau-Misfolding Agents
A prion is a protein locked in Strand 1 (unfolded, unregulated) conformation. In its native Strand 2 conformation it is functionally normal; misfolded, it is inert and propagates its wrong configuration to neighbouring proteins. Prion propagation follows a Tau-wave diffusion equation through the neural Tau-field.
P-VIR-5 · CRISPR as Natural Tau-Address Editor — Guide = 2² × 5 = 20 nt
CRISPR-Cas9 uses a 20-nucleotide guide RNA to locate and cut matching viral DNA. 20 = 2² × 5 is the minimum Tau-address segment for unique identification in a G1-register genome.
P-VIR-6 · Antibiotic Resistance as Tau-Lattice Adaptation
Resistance mutations shift the target Tau-address to a nearest-neighbour position in the {2,3,5,π} lattice — enough to block antibiotic binding, close enough to retain protein function.
