Intracellular bound chlorophyll residues identify 1 Gyr-old fossils as eukaryotic algae
The authors report nickel-porphyrins derivatives of chlorophyll in ~1 Gyr-old multicellular eukaryotes, preserved in low-grade metamorphic rocks. This brand new approach permits to identify early phototrophic organisms through the geological record.
