This project investigates the origins of eukaryotic cells by studying symbiotic relationships between Asgard archaea and other bacteria in various ecosystems. It employs advanced techniques to identify and characterize these microbial consortia and their interactions, aiming to enhance our understanding of the evolutio…
Recent advances in environmental microbiology, metagenomics and phylogenomics strongly suggest that the eukaryotic cell evolved from symbiotic consortia involving an Asgard archaeon and, at least, the alphaproteobacterial ancestor of the mitochondrion.
However, many genes of prokaryotic origin in the last eukaryotic common ancestor (LECA) appear to originate neither from archaea nor alphaproteobacteria, suggesting that other bacteria (e.g.
Deltaproteobacteria) may have contributed to eukaryogene…
