Extended Data Fig. 6 | Maximum-likelihood tree of Asgard archaea urocanate hydratase.Urocanate hydratase (HutU) homologues were obtained by BLASTp analysis of the Asgard archaea sequences against the UniProt database (release 2019_06).Of homologues with sequence similarity ≥40% and overlap ≥70%,representative sequences were selected using CD-HIT with a clustering cut-off of 70% similarity (otherwise default settings were used).

A dash indicates that data were not taken for that sample. a in Isolation of an archaeon at the prokaryote eukaryote interface
A dash indicates that data were not taken for that sample. a The iTAG analysis was performed for samples in which an increase of about 10 times or more in 16S rRNA gene copy numbers of MK-D1 was observed after incubation;data were analysed by qPCR assay.Detailed results are shown in Supplementary Table 1. b Final concentration of casamino acids was 0.05% (w/v). c Final concentration of each amino acid was 0.1 mM. d Powdered milk for baby (Hohoemi, Meiji) was used at a final concentration of 0.1% (w/v). e The concentration of hydrogen gas was in the head space of the culture bottle. f2-BES was added to inhibit methanogens. g Addition of nitrate completely suppressed the growth of MK-D1.This is probably because nitrate inhibits formate dehydrogenase activity of MK-D1 95. h Archaeal cell membrane components were a mixture of phytol,intact polar lipid–glycerol-dialkyl-glycerol tetraethers and core lipid– glycerol-dialkyl-glycerol tetraethers (each at a final concentration 50 ng ml −1). We used the archaeal membrane components as these have a positive effect on the growth of some archaeal species:(i) archaeal cell extract including membrane lipids stimulates the growth of the extremely thermophilic archaeon Thermocaldium modestius 96, and (ii) the hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermofilum pendes requires the polar lipids for growth,which was obtained from the archaeal species Thermoproteus tenax 97.

Additional homologues with verified biochemical activity, sequence similarity ≥30% and overlap ≥70% were obtained by BLASTp analysis of the Asgard archaea sequences against the UniProt/SwissProt database (2019_05). Sequences were aligned using MAFFT v.7 with default settings.Positions with gaps in more than 10% of the sequences were excluded from the alignment using trimAl v.1.2 (-gt 0.9; and otherwise default settings were used).The maximum-likelihood tree was constructed using PhyML using a fixed empirical substitution matrix (LG),4 discrete GAMMA categories,empirical amino acid frequencies from the alignment and 100 bootstrap replicates (-b 100 -d aa -m LG -v e). In total,308 sites of the alignment were used for tree construction. b, Tree calculated for a subset of sequences contained in a section of the original tree (branches that are coloured blue).Sequences were realigned and trimmed as described for a.

Korarchaeum) were then removed for tree construction.After removing all-gap positions and concatenation,the maximum-likelihood tree was constructed using RAxML- NG.Bootstrap values around critical branching points are also shown.In total, 14,875 sites of the alignment were used for tree construction. b, A ribosomal protein-based phylogenomic tree constructed using MrBayes.Bayesian inference phylogenies were calculated using MrBayes 3.2.7a and a ribosomal protein concatenated alignment used for Fig.4a. c, Phylogenetic tree of MK-D1 and related archaea based on 16S rRNA genes.The 16S rRNA gene sequences were aligned using SINA against the Silva v.132 alignment and the maximumlikelihood tree was calculated using RAxML.

Fig. 5 in Isolation of an archaeon at the prokaryote eukaryote interface
Fig. 5 | Proposed hypothetical model for eukaryogenesis. a, The syntrophic/ fermentative host archaeon is suggested to degrade amino acids to short-chain fatty acids and H2, possibly by interacting with H2-scavenging (and indirectly O2-scavenging) SRB (orange; see Supplementary Note 6). b, The host may have further interacted with a facultatively aerobic organotrophic partner that could scavenge toxic O2 (the future mitochondrion;red).Continued interaction with SRB could have been beneficial but not necessarily essential; dotted arrows indicate the interaction;see Supplementary Note 7.c, Host external structures could have interacted (for example,mechanical or biological fusion50) with the aerobic partner to enhance physical interaction and further engulf the partner for simultaneous development of endosymbiosis and a primitive nucleoid-bounding membrane.d, After engulfment,the host and symbiont could have continued the interaction shown in b as a primitive type of endosymbiosis.e, Development of ADP/ATP carrier (AAC) by the endosymbiont (initial direction of ATP transport remains unclear; see Supplementary Note 9). f, Endogenization of partner symbiosis by the host through delegation of catabolism and ATP generation to the endosymbiont and establishment of a symbiont-to-host ATP channel.

Scale bars 5 µm.The NanoSIMS analysis was performed without replicates due to its slow growth rate and low cell density.However,to ensure the reproducibility,we used two different types of highly purified cultures of MK-D1 (see Methods).Representative of n = 8 recorded images.The iTAG analysis of the imaged culture is shown in Supplementary Table 1.
Fig. 4 in Isolation of an archaeon at the prokaryote eukaryote interface
Fig. 4 | Phylogeny of MK-D1 and catabolic features of Asgard archaea. a, Maximum-likelihood tree (100 bootstrap replicates) of MK-D1 and select cultured archaea,eukaryotes and bacteria based on 31 ribosomal proteins that are conserved across the three domains (Supplementary Tables 7,8). Bootstrap values around critical branching points are also shown.We used 14,024 sites of the alignment for tree construction.b, The presence or absence of amino acid degradation,electron metabolism,fermentation,C1 metabolism,sulfur metabolism and aerobic respiration in individual genomes are shown (complete pathway,full circle; mostly complete pathway,half circle).For amino acid metabolism,pathways that are exclusively used for catabolism or degradation are in bold.Glycine metabolism through pyruvate (top) or formate (bottom). Butyrate metabolism is reversible (fermentation or β-oxidation); however,butyryl-CoA dehydrogenases tend to be associated with EtfAB in the genomes,suggesting formation of an electron-confurcating complex for butyrate fermentation.Propionate was determined by the presence of methylmalonyl-CoA decarboxylase,biotin carboxyl carrier protein and pyruvate carboxylase.Propionate metabolism is also reversible;however,no member of the Asgard archaea encodes the full gene set for syntrophic degradation.Alcohol dehydrogenases can have diverse substrate specificities. See Supplementary Note 5 for abbreviations.
