DNA uptake by cell wall-deficient bacteria reveals a putative ancient macromolecule uptake mechanism

R. Kapteijn, S. Shitut, D. Ashmann, L. Zhang, M. de Beer, D. Daviran, R. Roverts, A. Akiva, G. van Wezel, A. Kros, D. Claessen

The paper identifies a DNA uptake mechanism in cell wall-deficient bacteria that resembles eukaryotic endocytosis and may represent an ancient process for macromolecule acquisition.
