项目摘要

We have made significant progress in three areas:1) Asgard Tubulin: We have demonstrated that this protein is an intermediate between eukaryotic microtubules and the prokaryotic cell division machinery FtsZ. This provides a fascinating insight as to how a complex protein machine can evolve from a protein with a different function. These data were published in 2022.Akil, C., Ali, S., Tran, L. T., Gaillard, J., Li, W., Hayashida, K., Hirose, M., Kato, T., Oshima, A., Fujishima, K., Blanchoin, L., Narita, A. & Robinson, R. C. Structure and dynamics of Odinarchaeota tubulin and the implications for eukaryotic microtubule evolution. Sci. Adv. (2022) 8, 10.1126/sciadv.abm22252) Heimdallarchaeota and Odinarchaeota gelsolins. Here we have demonstrated that gelolins from these to phyla are able to sever actin filaments in a calcium-dependent manner. This leads us to the conclusion that calcium signaling to the actin cytoskeleton was present in the last common ancestor of Asgard archaea and eukaryotes, and thus predate eukaryogenesis. This manuscript is under revision at PNAS.3) Small GTPase signaling complexes. We have solved crystal structures of a Rab-like GTPase, several roadblock proteins and TRAPP proteins. These data allow us to demonstrate that the core proteins in eukaryotic signaling proteins, such as the ragulator complex, are present in Asgard archaea. Thus complex signalling to membranes predates eukaryogenesis. This manuscript is near completion.

我们在三个方面取得了重大进展：1）Asgard Tubulin：我们已经证明该蛋白是真核微管和原核细胞分裂机制FtsZ之间的中间体。这为复杂的蛋白质机器如何从具有不同功能的蛋白质进化提供了一个迷人的见解。这些数据发表于2022年。阿里，S.，特兰湖，澳-地T.，盖拉尔，J.，李伟，Hayashida，K.，Hirose，M.，加藤，T.，Oshima，A.，Fujishima，K.，布朗钦湖Narita，A. &罗宾逊，R.
