Dead cell-eating anaerobic bacteria! Some cool TEM images. Huge effort from Yuga Hirakata. rdcu.be/dpgh5 #bacteria #microbiology #ecology #microbes #syntrophy #symbiosis

Excited to share our surprising discovery of a highly novel photosynthetic bacterium from #Boreal #Shield #lakes in Canada! Now published in nature , over six years after our first enrichment culture A long thread 🧵 ⬇️ 1/ nature.com/articles/s4158…

A bacterium that can’t make its own cell wall without a partner!? Our new isolate from the uncultured phylum Marinimicrobia/SAR406/Marine Group A/Marinisomatota #bacteria #microbiology #ecology doi.org/10.1038/s41564…

We traced #photosynthesis deep into the history of #Bacteria & #Earth! Vertical #evolution in Terrabacteria, a non-O2-generating origin, later rise of O2 generation and even later Cyanobacteria, & more. On PNAS w @thermo_microbes つか＠国研 PNASNews pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

光合成を行う生物はいつ誕生したのか？地球生命史年表が書き変わる大発見に迫る！ : gendai.media/articles/-/129… #ブルーバックス

なぜ生物は酸素を作り始めたのか。最初に光合成をした生物は？地球生命の共通祖先の姿を追う！ : gendai.media/articles/-/129… #ブルーバックス

🤯＃光合成生物 の起源を突き止めた☀️ 植物が行うことで広く知られている光合成🌲☀️ この光合成を最初に始めた生物の起源は、実はよくわかっていなかったのですが、＃JAMSTEC の延主任研究員らの研究で、その起源は ＃シアノバクテリア を含む ＃テラバクテリア

生命が光エネルギーを掴んだのは30億年以上も前、バクテリアはその古代生命の末裔、酸素を作る能力は生命史中盤！？ 先日発表した論文の解説記事を書いてみました、よかったらインタビュー記事と合わせて。 「光合成の30億年以上に渡る歴史の解明！」 jamstec.go.jp/j/pr/topics/co…

Our study introduced on PNAS Showcase on Kudos, “Photosynthesis’ three billion year history”!! link.growkudos.com/1eswi3ojgu8

Our latest preprint is out! This paper led by Sukhwan Yoon uncovers a new process controlling the global hydrogen and nitrogen cycles, i.e. the direct coupling of hydrogen oxidation and ammonification. A beautiful combination of isolation, bioreactor, and systems biology studies.

Underground happy hour? Excited to share our discovery of a new symbiosis between subsurface bacteria and archaea bridged by syntrophic transfer of the smallest alcohol—methanol! nature Work led by a former student Huang Yan, congratulations! rdcu.be/d7W2s
