Scientists revived a creature frozen in Siberian permafrost for 24,000 Years. This multicellular animal survived, and its descendants revealed another clue. dailygalaxy.com/2026/09/roti... #microbiology #biology #science #SciChat

#Beer #brewing: take #grain, #crush it, #mash it, #boil it with #hops, #cool it, add #yeast and let #biochemistry do the #drinking before you do. Yeast turns #sugars into #alcohol and #CO₂, while hops bring #bitterness and #aroma. Basically: #microbiology with a #happyhour.

#Bacteroides acidifaciens enriched by KRAS mutation promotes #colorectal tumorigenesis.

KRAS‑mutant #colorectalcancer selects B. acidifaciens, whose SusF stabilizes ARHGEF2 to amplify KRAS–ERK signaling and drive tumorigenesis.
