Why would you use a tube rack to transport your plasmid preps around the lab when you can just carry them yourself?

New research on ancient Asgard archaeal ESCRT-III proteins reveals evolutionary secrets of membrane remodelling. Diorge Souza, Javier Espadas and Sami Chaaban, investigated the ESCRT-III proteins with Buzz Baum and Aurelien Roux. Read more: www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/asgard-archa... #LMBResearch (1/2)

Check out the new episode of Archaeacast! @archaealex.bsky.social and I discuss the intricacies of Thermophiles, followed with a fantastic interview by Theopi Rados with Dr. Rachel Whitaker. rss.com/podcasts/arc... Found on Apple Podcasts and Spotify! #archaea #microbiology #lifesciences #Scisky

Officially official 🙌🏼✨

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

🚨 bogus paper alert 🚨 Guess what's wrong with this preprint!? Level: easy But at least it gave me a good chuckle 🤭 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #microsky #archaeasky

Never "MinD" bacteria, lets talk #archaea! 🦠 Check out this foundational research from our JAMS treasurer @hannjbrown.bsky.social! 🔬👩‍🔬 #archaeasky #microsky #womeninstem

ARC says they’ll release the Discovery Projects 2025 outcomes tomorrow. Recently, outcomes announcements have tended to happen at/around 11am Canberra time. My bot will pick up the announcement in RMS’s database and post immediately. Good luck!

Excited to have our review 'Archaea and the origin of eukaryotes' in the @NatureRevMicro special issue celebrating the 40th anniversary of Woese and Fox's paper! With @anjspa1 @cstairs J. Lombard and @Ettema_lab https://www.nature.com/articles/nrmicro.2017.133

🚨 New paper alert! 🚨 MinD is famously known for positioning FtsZ at mid-cell in bacteria In our study, myself and @iduggin.bsky.social found that MinD homologues in Haloferax volcanii influence the localisation of CetZ1, a homologue of FtsZ and tubulin #Archaeasky #Microsky

JAMS Sydney has made its way to Bluesky! ✨ Help us connect JAMSters as they make their way over so let us know if you'd like to be added! 🦠 go.bsky.app/B1uUprK

Interested in following our researchers and their work? Find them in our starter pack of AIMI researchers! go.bsky.app/QYFfTtT #microsky #microbiology

#JAMS on Bluesky! 🎉 Check out our starter pack to connect with JAMSters and #microbiology researchers in Sydney and NSW!

This is so cool! An #archaea podcast?!?!

What is the role of MinD proteins in Archaea? They are not involved in positioning of the cell division proteins, but might rather position the archaellum machinery at the poles and interact with cytosceletal proteins. New paper alert coming!

Anymore archaea peeps out there keen to be part of the ‘kingdom’? #archaeasky go.bsky.app/PEx7P9v

If you are in Sydney don’t miss the AMR day this Thursday: www.theasm.org.au/conferences-...
