摘要
The genome of the acid- and heat-loving microorganismThermoplasma acidophilum has been sequenced. The sequence reveals the remarkable ability of this organism to pick up genes from other species, and suggests — contrary to expectations — that T. acidophilumis not the ancestor of eukaryotic cells.
