A Marine Symbiosis Allows a Better Understanding of Our Cells Evolution
Human cells, as well as cells of animals, plants, fungi, and other eukaryotic organisms, originally emerged hundreds of millions of years ago through the symbiotic association of some primitive bacteria that, until then, had lived independently. This represented an unprecedented leap in the complexity of life, where some bacteria, after having resided within cells for a long time, eventually transitioned into becoming organelles of these cells. This transition allowed for the compartmentalization and control of bacterial-derived functions within the eukaryotic cell. CBIOMES Mick Follows contributes to a new paper in the journal Cell.
