Colonial choanoflagellate isolated from Mono Lake harbors a microbiome

K. Hake, P. T. West, K. L. McDonald, D. Laundon, A. Garcia De Las Bayonas, C. Feng, P. Burkhardt, D. J. Richter, J. Banfield, N. King

The paper isolates and characterizes a new colonial choanoflagellate species, Barroeca monosierra, from Mono Lake that hosts a microbiome, offering a model for studying eukaryote-bacteria interactions.

Choanoflagellates and the ancestry of neurosecretory vesicles

R. Gohde, B. Nauman, D. Laundon, C. Imig, K. L. McDonald, B. H. Cooper, F. Varoqueaux, D. Fasshauer, P. Burkhardt

This study identifies core neurosecretory vesicle proteins in non-bilaterian metazoans and their unicellular relatives, revealing ancestral molecular features and polarized vesicle organization in choanoflagellates.

Light-regulated collective contractility in a multicellular choanoflagellate

T. Brunet, B. Larson, T. Linden, M. Vermeij, K. L. McDonald, N. King

A newly described choanoflagellate species forms cup-shaped colonies that reversibly invert their curvature in response to light.

Meiotic cellular rejuvenation is coupled to nuclear remodeling in budding yeast

E. Ünal, G. A. King, J. S. Goodman, K. Chetlapalli, J. G. Schick, D. M. Jorgens, K. L. McDonald

The paper identifies a mechanism in budding yeast where nuclear senescence factors are sequestered and eliminated during meiosis II to prevent their inheritance into gametes.
