Phagocytosis - cell ingestion - is an important process confined to eukaryotes. Or is it? Shiratori et al. have discovered the existence of phagocytosis in a planctomycete bacterium, raising new questions about the significance of phagotrop...

Serious fungal infections continue to devastate people living with HIV and remain a leading cause of infection-related deaths in this population, second only to tuberculosis. The third AIDS-related mycoses workshop updated progress in the f...

The acquisition of metal ions and the proper maturation of holo-metalloproteins are essential processes for all organisms. However, metal ion homeostasis is a double-edged sword. A cytosolic accumulation of metal ions can lead to mismetalla...

Permafrost covers a quarter of the northern hemisphere land surface and contains twice the amount of carbon that is currently present in the atmosphere. Future climate change is expected to reduce its near-surface cover by over 90% by the e...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) harbor thousands of nuclei in a large syncytium at all times. Although mating processes have not been observed in AMF, their cells and genomes show many signatures of sexual reproduction. Here, we describe...

Measles vaccination is a public health 'best buy', with the highest cost of illness averted of any vaccine-preventable disease (Ozawa et al., Bull. WHO 2017;95:629). In recent decades, substantial reductions have been made in the number of ...
