This story started 5y ago with my lab. Spearheaded by fearless 1st authors @theopi and Olivia Leland. Theopi is now a PhD student at @BrownUniversity. Olivia is a physics PhD student at @BrandeisU, a self-taught biologist, and made us love soft matter. A (very long) thread (1/24)

Excited to share our team's discovery on tissue-like multicellularity in archaea under mechanical compression! Led by @theopi, Olivia Leland & @Archaeon_Alex, it rethinks the evolution of multicellularity beyond eukaryotes. @HFSP @MPI_Bio biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

Excited to share our new preprint on S-layers! We've modeled ~150 S-layers spanning the prokaryotic tree of life. Great collaboration with Ed Johnston, @JonathanDoye at @OxfordChemistry, @buse_isbilir, @TBharat_lab at @MRC_LMB, and myself at @MPI_Bio.

Happy to share our recent view on #PII-LIKE signaling w/ @Vikram_Alva @BUnifr & @MPI_Bio in Current Opinion in Microbiology PII-LIKE proteins are widespread in all life domains including: bacteria, archaea, phages, fungi, plants, metazoa, animals & human sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Delving deeper, we used DAP-seq to reveal that HBb binds along the entire genomic DNA of B. bacteriovorus without sequence specificity. The wonders of bacterial histones continue to unfold! Dive into our manuscript for more details: 👉 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

🔬New insights on bacterial histones! 🧬 Our study, led by Yimin Hu & @SammyBoterhammy, shows that in Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus, HBb bends DNA uniquely, differently from eukaryotic & archaeal histones. Great collaboration with Birte Hernandez, @DameLab. @MPIBio @LeidenScienceEN
