Structure of a functional archaellum in Bacteria of the Chloroflexota phylum - Nature Microbiology
Bona fide gene clusters for archaella are widespread across a bacterial phylum and encode functional motility machinery.

Thrilled to be a coauthor in this story 🚀 Check out our latest publication on the archaellum - spoiler: it's an archaellum in bacteria 😱 Who would have thought? Thank you to all the authors, and especially @sshamphavi.bsky.social for really keeping this paper rotating 😉
Happy to share that our story on the bacterial archaellum was published today in @natmicrobiol.nature.com

Started a PhD in the field of Archaea, ended up writing a paper about a bacterium! Enjoy new insights into the cell biology of Litorilinea aerophila, a member of the Chloroflexota 🦠
🚨 Imagine a bacterium that refuses to follow the textbook:
It grows as tangled filaments, divides unevenly, reshapes its own membranes… and even builds grappling hooks.
Meet Litorilinea aerophila — and here’s why it blew our minds.

wuhuu and it's out! Check out our latest Preprint on Bacteria using archaella for swimming! So much fun figuring it out and great collab with @mariejoest.bsky.social @loumollat.bsky.social Najwa Taib and @sgribaldo.bsky.social
Would you expect that Bacteria use an archaellum for swimming? We didn't, but we found that some Chloroflexota do! Find the story here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Horizontal gene transfer of the functional archaellum machinery to Bacteria
Motility in Archaea is driven by a nanomachinery called the archaellum. So far, archaella have been exclusively described for the archaeal domain; however, a recent study reported the presence of arch...
