The paper uses proteomics to confirm the presence of canonical histones and histone-like proteins in dinoflagellates, revealing conserved features of histone biology and new insights into dinoflagellate chromatin structure.

The paper identifies a new viral order, Skiavirales, in marine protists through long-read sequencing and shows gene exchange between viruses and host genomes.

This study shows that freshwater sponges acquired the microbial gene rquA via lateral gene transfer, enabling rhodoquinone biosynthesis and adaptation to hypoxia.

This paper demonstrates that semi-permeable capsules can sustain and observe eukaryotes from eight supergroups, enabling parallel cultivation and microscopic analysis.

This study investigates the evolutionary pathways of anaerobic mitochondrial adaptations in breviate protists by analyzing transcriptomes and predicting MRO proteomes across eight species.
