Bacterial immune proteins have repeatedly evolved to become parts of eukaryotic immunity. But how?
Our new preprint uncovers a recent horizontal transfer event & shows how eukaryotes co-opted a toxic bacterial immune protein 🦠🧪🧵 1/
@lfceriotti.bsky.social et al. investigate the rewiring of organellar translation in the holoparasitic Balanophoraceae, revealing extreme changes in the anciently conserved machinery of plant organellar translation.

Just reading: Comment in Nature
The uncritical adoption of AI in science is alarming — we urgently need guard rails www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Excited to say that my new paper with @maxlechte.bsky.social (and others not on bluesky) has come out in @nature.com! Study of sediments, geochemistry and fossils from rocks 1.75 to 1.4 billion years old indicate that the oldest known #eukaryotes were aerobic and benthic!

Artificial intelligence is rapidly accelerating scientific output, but risks narrowing inquiry, weakening judgement and undermining how scientists are trained.
Nature - Integrated palaeontological, sedimentological and geochemical analyses of ancient rocks from Australia show that early eukaryotes were largely restricted to oxygenated benthic habitats,...
