New research sheds light on one of the biggest questions in biology: where did complex life come from? The answer may lie ...
Who were our earliest ancestors? The answer could lie in a special group of single-celled organisms with a cytoskeleton ...
Ten years ago, nobody knew that Asgard archaea even existed. In 2015, however, researchers examining deep-sea sediments ...
In 2015, researchers examining deep-sea sediments near the underwater volcano Loki discovered gene fragments indicating a new ...
Originating in the sediments of a brackish water channel in Slovenia, this Asgard archaeon was isolated by researchers in Christa Schleper's laboratory at the University of Vienna. In that study ...

This step could have occurred aeons ago when an Asgard archaeon entwined a bacterium with its appendages. Over time, the nucleus and other compartments evolved, and the eukaryotic cell was born.
