Microcompartments in archaeal ancestors of eukaryotes: a bioenergetic engine that could have fuelled eukaryogenesis

Huan Du, Aoxiang Xu, Xiaoyuan Feng…·Yang Liu

The paper identifies archaeal microcompartments in Hodarchaeales, showing they enhance energy production and may have contributed to eukaryogenesis.

Diversity, Origin and Evolution of the ESCRT Systems

Kira S. Makarova, Victor Tobiasson, Yuri I. Wolf…·Eugene V. Koonin

This paper reconstructs the evolution of ESCRT systems in archaea, identifying homologs in Asgardarchaeota and other groups, suggesting an early origin of ESCRT components and their connection to the ubiquitin system.
