  1. YeeE is a #bacterial #MembraneProtein that mediates #thiosulfate uptake; this study identifies YeeD as a partner of YeeE, characterizing their cooperation (based on thiosulfate ion decomposition by YeeD) at both structural & functional levels #PLOSBiology plos.io/3UaXkAR

  2. How brachyuran #crabs survive in highly acidic areas near shallow-water #HydrothermalVents phys.org/news/2023-01-brachyur

    Cellular mechanisms underlying extraordinary sulfide tolerance in a #crustacean #holobiont from hydrothermal vents royalsocietypublishing.org/doi

    The crabs have unique gills able to oxidize the #sulfide to #thiosulfate and to bind it to #hypotaurine, generating #thiotaurine. #Bacteria living in the gills absorb the thiotaurine—they use it as an energy source and make it even less #toxic.
