Starting my bluesky with this super exciting new!
New preprint from Di Pietro's Lab
www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
How do fungal pathogens maintain dispensable chromosomes without losing them in clonal evolution?
Here's a thread 🧵

www.nature.com/articles/s41... nice paper from Carl-Eric Wegner @hhu.de 🧪

Our review on #lichen research in the #omics era is out in @lichenologist.bsky.social! We discuss omics-driven progress and outline several areas and methods that we think especially promising for lichen biology, such as single-cell omics and epigenomics
🖥️ 🧪 🦠 🧫 #SymbioSky doi.org/10.1017/S002...

The infographic is divided into three columns.

Column 1: Sample Types.

At the top is a photo of a yellow Lichen Thallus. An arrow points down to a cross-section diagram showing green algal cells embedded in white fungal hyphae. Below this is Isolate Cultures, showing a petri dish and a test tube containing green liquid.

Column 2: Omics.

- Genomics: Assembly of D N A sequences into complete genomes, illustrated by blue horizontal bars and a double helix icon.

- Transcriptomics: Quantifying expression of genes, shown as small green segments aligning to a dark blue reference genome.

- Metabolomics: Analysis of metabolites, represented by a chemical molecular structure.

- Proteomics: Characterization of proteins, shown as a blue 3 D protein folding model.

- Epigenomics: Exploration of genome modifications, illustrated by blue circles representing histones wrapped in D N A with hexagonal tags.

Column 3: Advances and Opportunities.

- Evolution of lichenization: A phylogenetic tree paired with a horizontal bar chart.

- Gene regulation: A line graph showing chromatin accessibility and a heatmap for motif enrichment analysis. Below is a D N A sequence motif: C G C G A A A A A A.

- Symbiont interaction: A diagram comparing a bulk sample to isolated nuclei using single-cell transcriptomics, visualized with a stacked bar chart showing different cell population proportions.

The first paper of my PostDoc in Christa Schlepers group (@archaea-vienna.bsky.social) on the dynamics of Asgard archaea is now out in Nature!
www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This was a great team effort and I am looking forward to uncover the complex behavior of these cells further!

Thank you MibiNet & friends @mibinet.bsky.social for a wonderful International Symposium on "Microbial Networking - from organelles to cross-kingdom communities"!!
It was impressive to see the vivid exchange, excellent talks and and poster discussions.

Our paper on the subcellular proteome of Paulinella is finally out! A possible oxygen-scavenging mechanism to enhance RuBisCO carboxylation highlights how protists can reveal unexpected solutions to challenges in photosynthesis. Big kudos to everyone involved! @evanowack.bsky.social

🎉 Out today in Cell: the paper I've been looking forward to sharing for a long time 🎉

We used cryo-ET to find a molecular machine nobody knew existed on the surface of a minimal bacterium, and worked out what it does.

Happy to share that our study of the interaction between the MAX effector AVR-Pia and rice HMA domain-containing proteins has been published (as the cover article!) in PLOS Pathogens.

Another step in the #Starship story - they move via a circular intermediate.

Helps explain how these elements horizontally transfer and means that we can modify them into transformation vectors (starmids).

AlphaFold Database is expanding into pandemic preparedness. Together with NVIDIA, DeepMind, EBI et al. we exhaustively predicted ~1.7 million homo- & heterodimers across 2,812 viral proteomes, resulting in 8,028 high-confidence predictions.

ʙɪɴᴅᴄʀᴀꜰᴛ2 is out, and we're not waiting for the paper. The full code drops today, free for academic and industry use.

We're releasing it early so you can start designing right now, and bring its full power to the current Adaptyv competition.

BFVD v3 contains 5.8M viral protein structures, 16× more than v2; 75% high quality, filling a major gap in AFDB coverage. It fully covers 72.6% of reference proteomes and spans 72.7% of ICTV species. Great work by @eunbelivable.bsky.social et al.
