  • Bacterial chromosomes are tightly packed, limiting structural analysis by imaging techniques. Here, by quantitative time-lapse single-cell imaging of widened Escherichia coli cells, Wu and Japaridze et al. show that the chromosome exhibits a ring-like torus topology and a dynamic domain structure.

  • ANME-1 archaea are important because of their ability to metabolize methane through anaerobic oxidation. Here the authors use metagenomics on hydrothermal samples from the Gulf of California to characterize a family of ANME-1 and its virome.

  • Eukaryotic Argonaute proteins participate in RNA-guided RNA silencing pathways and are divided into AGO and PIWI clades, with functional and mechanistic differences. Here, the authors show that a deep-branching PIWI protein from Asgard archaea (the closest prokaryotic relatives of eukaryotes) displays hybrid features and may reflect an ancestral molecular architecture that preceded the divergence of eukaryotic AGOs and PIWIs.

  • The recovery of two circularized genomes of the Heimdallarchaeum species from hydrothermal vent enrichment cultures reveals that these Asgard archaea carry diverse mobile genetic elements, such as an integrative viral genome and aloposons. These mobile genetic elements contain several bacteria- and phage-derived genes, modulating the shuffling of information between bacteria and archaea, and potentially influencing eukaryogenesis.

  • Using nanofabricated chambers, living bacterial cells can be 'sculpted' into defined shapes, such as squares and rectangles, which can be used to explore the spatial adaptation of Min protein oscillations, a Turing reaction–diffusion pattern that assists cell division.
