It’s finally here! 🎉 Delayed a bit by the classic post-PhD lab change, but very happy to see this work published. Thank you @lionelguy.bsky.social and @sellinlab.bsky.social 😄

Finally out! Did you ever wonder how a phylum with 10 core genes can make a conserved organelle? Read the paper! It's all about intrinsically disordered proteins! | PNAS www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Moreno, @lionelguy.bsky.social et al. applied experimental evolution to identify genes conferring host specificity to L. pneumophila, highlighting the importance of mutations targeting the LerC protein and the LPS synthesis cluster. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/molbev/msaf161 #evolbio #molbio #legionella

Here our revised version of our manuscript defining viral factories as biomolecular condensates. Hope you enjoy the reading. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
