PPE51 is one of the best candidates to form a MOM transport channel. However, our data indicate that it is not that simple. PPE51 mutations in Mmarinum (4 close homologs) indeed reduce the growth on glycerol & glucose, but also highly increase permeability.. and no, we do not fully understand this

How can we understand the earliest events in evolution of eukaryotic immunity? @yao-li.bsky.social reports incredible molecular fossils of complete bacterial-like operons in eukaryotes that illuminate how animal immunity was first acquired from anti-phage defense www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Together with @soreklab.bsky.social, our labs discovered that the human cGAS-STING pathway evolved from ancient bacterial proteins in CBASS anti-phage defense www.nature.com/articles/s41... www.nature.com/articles/s41... www.nature.com/articles/s41...
