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

Nucleocytoviricota viral factories are transient organelles made by liquid-liquid phase separation
Phase separation is a widespread mechanism in viral processes, mediating replication, host manipulation and virion morphogenesis. The phylum Nucleocytoviricota encompasses diverse and ubiquitous virus...
