#Bacterial acquisition of #zinc. @Ignacio_Luque_R @cyanofur &co reveal that a previously unstudied exoprotein from #cyanobacteria is an ancient system for Zn2+ acquisition that has been well conserved for billions of years #PLOSBiology plos.io/3PkyfBU

An ancient bacterial zinc acquisition system identified from a cyanobacterial exoproteome

Bacteria have developed fine-tuned responses to cope with limiting amounts of the essential mineral zinc.

As we (humans) get to grips with how to scale up #hydrogen as an energy source (and for energy storage) and as part replacement for #fossilfuels, this new research (once again) shows that #microbes have beaten us to it and evolved their own solutions for energy - in this case using hydrogen power.

This new research in Nature Microbiology explores how hydrogen in seawater supports growth of multiple and diverse #bacterial species.

Fof those (like me) in #Melbourne , you may be interested that the research also includes study of this process within #PortPhillipBay sediments.

Molecular hydrogen in seawater supports growth of diverse marine bacteria - Nature Microbiology

Genome-resolved metagenomics, biogeochemistry, modelling and culture-based analysis reveal that marine bacteria consume H2 to support growth.
