AIRE-TEAM @aire-team.bsky.social · 07/07/2025Transcription gets more noisy and co-expression more heterogeneous when S. islandicus cells age (in G2) #aging #archaea #transcriptomes #networks Thanks to Miguel Gomez Raya Vilanova :) and all great co-authors: Annette Baudisch, Claudio Franceschi, Yuping Dai, @jerometeu.bsky.social 121
AIRE-TEAM @aire-team.bsky.social · 07/07/2025Archaeal cell have a hard start in life, dying in excess around cell division, and then, their risk of dying decreases. Is it aging? Is it #ontogenescence? Do archaeal cells age? Can archaeal cells rejuvenate by asymetric cell division? #archaea #aging #rejuvenation Thanks @mkrupovic.bsky.social 231
AIRE-TEAM @aire-team.bsky.social · 07/07/2025congratulations to Yuping Dai, who has found gerogenic bacteria, i.e., bacteria with some gene coding proteins that may interefere with proteins associated with human aging: bacteria that may get us to age faster! 110

Reposted by AIRE-TEAMDuncan Sussfeld @dsussfeld.bsky.social · 11/06/2025Our results show that even the most conserved genes have significant variants in natural biomes. These could be indicative of novel taxonomic groups and divergent biologies at play in the global ocean. We hope that these results can guide future targeted searches into microbial dark matter! 🕵️🔬 041
Reposted by AIRE-TEAMDuncan Sussfeld @dsussfeld.bsky.social · 11/06/2025📣 So excited to share the latest paper from my PhD with @aire-team.bsky.social, out now in Environmental Microbiome! 🥳 We mined a large ocean microbiome for remote homologues of core gene families in uncultured lineages.
