Our paper "Gene ancestries reveal diverse microbial associations during eukaryogenesis.” is finally out in Nature.
Eukaryogenesis was likely a gradual process shaped by multiple microbial partners and virus-mediated gene transfer, rather than a single binary symbiosis.

This was a fun journey with @caroline-tawk.bsky.social at the Till Strowig lab and a fantastic collaboration with @cibiocm.bsky.social
Big thanks to all coauthors Kun Huang, Pavaret Sivapornnukul and Claudia Mengoni!

Microbes evolving with modern lifestyles 🧬🦠
S. copri uses PerR to manage oxygen stress, but some strains acquired OxyR via HGT, boosting oxygen tolerance.
These strains are enriched in industrialized populations.

S. copri keeps pace with modern lifestyles
Subset of Segatella copri strains have acquired an additional oxygen regulator via horizontal gene transfer, which confers increased oxygen tolerance. These strains are more prevalent in industrialized countries

Researchers have identified superparamagnetic macrophages in the livers of rock pigeons to be crucial for magnetic sensing. The finding uncovers an unexpected role for immune cells in sensory perception and may fundamentally change our understanding of animal navigation.

Die Studie der Erstautor:innen @youssefelmouali.bsky.social & @caroline-tawk.bsky.social ist heute bei @cp-cellhostmicrobe.bsky.social erschienen. Das Team aus der Abteilung von Till Strowig vermutet, dass die Sauerstofftoleranz einen Selektionsvorteil bieten könnte.

Unser Darm ist normalerweise eine sauerstofffreie Zone und viele Bakterien im #Darmmikrobiom vertragen keinen Sauerstoff. Ein HZI-Team zeigt nun aber, dass das #Darmbakterium Segatella copri in industrialisierten Ländern häufiger sauerstofftolerant ist.
