In short: Phylogenetically diverse new lineages of #Chlamydiae (a bacterial phylum which includes the pathogen #Chlamydia) are abundant and active in deep #anoxic #marine #sediments taken from near Loki’s Castle #hydrothermal vent field 3/11

Experimental support for the #hotsprings hypothesis for life's origin: David Deamer of @ucsc on nucleic acid polymerization in the wet-dry cycling of Darwin's "warm little pond," powered by #geothermal. Lab results confirmed in #hydrothermal pools.

From "boring statistical partitioning" in the fission of early protocells to the complex #homeostasis-driven #mitosis of the cells we know - Doron Lancet of @WeizmannInstSci on the gradient between closure of #autocatalysis #networks to complex regulatory mechanisms of #biology.
"Life is an integrated nested network of dynamic #kinetic cycles."
