  6. #eukaryotic cells and the proto-ancient Halls Of #Asgard and #FirstContact

    *The Conversation* has an interesting read about how #Stromatolites may demonstrate a mechanism for the evolution of Eucaryotic cells like those that make up you or possibly me.[1][2]

    The First Contact is actually literal.
    Perhaps it's "First" and perhaps that's just __enthusiastic titling__ :)

    #Evolution is a thing.
    So are Stromatolites::

    sharkbay.org/publications/fact

    "" Nerearchaeum marumarumayae. The species name – marumarumayae – is derived from the Aboriginal language of the Malgana people, meaning “ancient home”, a reference to stromatolites being of ancient origin in Earth’s history. ""

    [2] I checked Tea and Chilli are Eucaryotic so ... Me too.

While colloquially reduced to the moniker of "cellular powerhouse," the mitochondrion is, in functional reality, a highly integrated endosymbiont that serves as the master regulator of eukaryotic physiology

    #ALTTEXT from #Mushroom #Fungi picture:

    "Fungi challenge us to rethink neat categories around the individual, but they are not the only ones. Another boundary-defying organism is the Slime Mold. These unicellular eukaryotic organisms have the astonishing capacity to join and become a complex multicellular organism. Slime Molds will merge and move as a collective which allows them to better respond to their shifting environments, search for food, and have sex. In a world that feels increasingly precarious, there are lessons here. Devin Cohen, one of the Hanky Project artists, writes that for them, Slime Molds reflect the possibilities for queer communities to work collectively, dissemble the refuse of our human world -- capitalism, environmental waste, cis-hetero-patriarchy, racism -- and 'digest it into something life giving, healed, welcoming and weird.' In a country where toxic individualism has wreaked havoc, where mantras like 'pull yourself up by the bootstraps,' are presented as means for 'success,' organisms that choose to come together present a radical and refreshing alternative."

    However, eukaryotic cells have since diversified into many complex, #multicellular organisms that we see around us every day—#fungi, #plants and #animals—while prokaryotes have remained decidedly unicellular.

  30. "We identified two anti-CRISPR proteins AcrIC8 and AcrIC9 that strongly inhibit Neisseria lactamica I-C function. Structural analysis showed that AcrIC8 inhibits PAM recognition through allosteric inhibition, whereas AcrIC9 achieves so through direct competition. Both Acrs potently inhibit I-C-mediated genome editing and transcriptional modulation in human cells, providing the first off-switches for type I #CRISPR #eukaryotic #genome #engineering."

    #ExtremeEnvironments offer an unprecedented opportunity to understand #microbial #eukaryotic #ecology, #evolution, and #genome #biology: Hannah Rappaport & Angela Oliverio nature.com/articles/s41467-023

    “several lineages of #amoebae were often recovered from extremely high temperature environments. Studying those lineages may yield great insight into how eukaryotic cells can adapt to life in extremely hot environments.”
