Thrilled to be a coauthor in this story 🚀 Check out our latest publication on the archaellum - spoiler: it's an archaellum in bacteria 😱 Who would have thought? Thank you to all the authors, and especially @sshamphavi.bsky.social for really keeping this paper rotating 😉

Started a PhD in the field of Archaea, ended up writing a paper about a bacterium! Enjoy new insights into the cell biology of Litorilinea aerophila, a member of the Chloroflexota 🦠

🚨 Imagine a bacterium that refuses to follow the textbook:
It grows as tangled filaments, divides unevenly, reshapes its own membranes… and even builds grappling hooks.
Meet Litorilinea aerophila — and here’s why it blew our minds.

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
