This project examines the role of arsenic in microbial life, particularly in high-altitude lakes with elevated arsenic levels. It aims to understand microbial arsenic cycling and adaptation through advanced imaging techniques and laboratory experiments, linking findings to evolutionary processes and potential applicati…
Arsenic is a notorious toxin, and as such may have exerted a strong selective pressure on the distribution and evolution of life on Earth.
Despite evidence supporting the high levels and prominent role of As on the primitive Earth, the essentiality and toxicity of As, and its impact on evolutionary processes remains unexplored.
AsLife aims at taking a novel approach to assessing microbial As cycling by exploiting two linked «environments».
The first are the microbial mats from High-Altitude Ande…
