To call this memory seems like a stretch. By the logic of the article, every daughter cell has 'memory' of the parent cell because some proteins from the parent cell are present in the daughter cell. I would be curious to see p53 complex concentration as a function of cell generation/mitosis time to show how durable this 'memory' actually is.

If those proteins are mutable and have an impact on child cell function, I'd call that memory :)

Why those things specifically?
