A novel connection between primordial organisms and complex life has been discovered, as new evidence sheds light on the evolutionary origins of the cell division process that is fundamental to complex life on Earth.<\/p>\n

\n <\/section>\n

The discovery was made by a cross-disciplinary team of scientists led by Professor Buzz Baum of University College London and Dr. Nick Robinson of Lancaster University.<\/p>\n

Their research, published in Science<\/a><\/i>, sheds light on the cell division of the microbe Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, which thrives in acidic hot springs at temperatures of around 75 C. This microbe is classed among the unicellular organisms called archaea that evolved 3.5 billion years ago together with bacteria.
\nEukaryotes evolved about 1 billion years later\u2014likely arising from an endosymbiotic event in which an archaeal and bacterial cell merged. The resulting complex cells became a new division of life that now includes the protozoa, fungi, plants and animals.
\nNow a common regulatory mechanism has been discovered in the cell division of both archaea and eukaryotes after the researchers demonstrated for the first time that the proteasome\u2014sometimes referred to as the waste disposal system of the cell\u2014regulates the cell division in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius by selectively breaking down a specific set of proteins.
\nThe authors report: “This is important because the proteasome has not previously been shown to control the cell division process of archaea.”
\nThe proteasome is evolutionarily conserved in both archaea and eukaryotes and it is already well established that selective proteasome-media<\/a>ted protein degradation plays a key role in the cell cycle regulation of eukaryotes.
\nThese findings therefore shed new light on the evolutionary history of the eukaryotes.
\nThe authors summarize: “It has become increasingly app<\/a>arent that the complex eukaryotic cells arose following an endosymbiotic event between an ancestral archaeal cell and an alpha-proteobacterium, which subsequently became the mitochondria within the resulting eukaryotic cell. Our study suggests that the vital role of the proteasome in the cell cycle of all eukaryotic life today has its evolutionary origins in archaea.”<\/p>\n
