Labile assembly of a tardigrade protein induces biostasis

S. Sanchez-Martinez, K. Nguyen, S. Biswas, V. Nicholson, A. V. Romanyuk, J. F. Ramirez, S. KC, A. Akter, C. Childs, E. T. Usher, G. M. Ginell, F. Yu, E. Gollub, M. Malferrari, F. Francia, , T. C. Boothby

This study identifies a mechanism by which tardigrade CAHS D proteins form gels to protect cells during desiccation, showing that gelation reduces molecular motion and metabolic activity, with reversible effects.

Water content, transition temperature and fragility influence protection and anhydrobiotic capacity

J. F. Ramirez, U. G. V. S. S. Kumara, N. Arulsamy, T. C. Boothby

This study identifies material properties of vitrified systems that correlate with desiccation tolerance in vitro and in organisms, showing that protection depends on distinct properties for different sugars and that organisms combine these properties for survival.
