Where Am I? Niche constraints due to morphological specialization in two Tanganyikan cichlid fish species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Food resource specialization within novel environments is considered a common axis of diversification in adaptive radiations. Feeding specializations are often coupled with striking morphological adaptations and exemplify the relation between morphology ...

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...

Rapid generation of ecologically relevant behavioral novelty in experimental cichlid hybrids

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
The East African cichlid radiations are characterized by repeated and rapid diversification into many distinct species with different ecological specializations and by a history of hybridization events between nonsister species.

Mass spectrometry based identification of AMP‐O‐Tris generated by Thermococcus onnurineus Cas10

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Isolated Thermococcus onnurineus Cas10 generates the noncanonical ATP‐derived product AMP‐O‐Tris while in Tris‐containing buffer as identified via mass spectrometry, revealing relaxed nucleophile selectivity under isolated conditions. These findings suggest that multiprotein Csm complex assembly restricts Cas10 reactivity toward canonical cyclic ...

Differentiation of Ecological Niches in Trophic Specialists From a Disturbed Lacustrine Ecosystem: Insights from the Sympatric Lake Tana Labeobarbs (Cyprinidae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Adaptive radiations of freshwater fishes are based on the partitioning of trophic resources as sympatric forms diverge and end up occupying unique and specialized trophic niches. It remained unknown how these specialists responded to recent human‐induced

Plasticity and evolutionary convergence in the locomotor skeleton of Greater Antillean Anolis lizards

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Plasticity can put evolution on repeat if development causes species to generate similar morphologies in similar environments. Anolis lizards offer the opportunity to put this role of developmental plasticity to the test.

Phylogenomics of trophically diverse cichlids disentangles processes driving adaptive radiation and repeated trophic transitions

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Cichlid fishes of the tribe Tropheini are a striking case of adaptive radiation, exemplifying multiple trophic transitions between herbivory and carnivory occurring in sympatry with other established cichlid lineages. Tropheini evolved highly specialized

Optimizing photoactivation of PA‐mCherry for optical pooled CRISPR screens

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Photoactivatable PA‐mCherry finds widespread use to optically tag individual cells. However, confocal 405 nm UV laser‐scanning (normal scan) is much less efficient than widefield UV illumination, limiting the use of PA‐mCherry on confocal instruments. We remedy this limitation by reporting that rapid and repeated confocal scanning with a low‐intensity,
