And if you think they must, because “protons diffuse fast,” this paper is for you.

New preprint out! Using ~75k environmental OTUs + 77 fossil calibrations, we reconstructed a Proterozoic timeline of eukaryote evolution. Our results show crown eukaryotes were already diversifying >1.6 Ga, long before the first undisputed fossils (~1.05 Ga).

🌊🧪 Carbon is also used by organisms to construct their calcium carbonate hard parts. In CaCO3 there is one C atom for every Ca atom. In sea water there are 20 C atoms for every 100 Ca atoms. Thus, the generation of CaCO3 depletes carbon about five times more rapidly than it does calcium. -

How do new centromeres evolve while staying compatible with the division machinery?
Discover it in our new Nature paper! We show centromeres transition gradually via a mix of drift, selection, and sex, reaching new states that still work with the kinetochore.
