I am a tiny little animal of 0.5 mm.

#opinion Hey! You're probably thinking what would such a small creature do here now Yoors. But I couldn't help it because I'm proud of what people have discovered about me. I have to admit that I was completely unaware of it myself

But a researcher in Science found us so special because, like insects, we were able to run with 8 legs, while still being made of a soft material, that he wanted to take a closer look at us.
And then he discovered that in addition to extreme heat, we could also withstand extreme cold. Then they went even further. They sent some of my peers to the ISS and put us there in the vacuum and cold of space. Furthermore, they shot us with a special gun, left us without oxygen for 20 minutes. All of this, most of us managed to survive! I think we will still be alive on Earth if your candle has been blown out on Earth for a long time.
And then they also discovered that we could also live without water for years.
They couldn't post this at all.
So another investigation.
And what did they find in all our cells? A very special protein. It is located in a corner of our cells and only takes action when we are short of moisture.
Then the proteins, our allies, spread,
itself as a right-
raised sol
dates around the
cell to prop. When water flows in again, they retreat to their corner. The Scientists gave this protein the name cytoplasmic abondant heat soluble or CAHS. Nice name, I think. It sounds almost like 'greenhouse' Do they think our cells are small boxes
its? then
do they still have
right too.

The researchers find our CAHS proteins
so formidable
that she now
also want
bet for
other purposes.

They first tried them out in insects that they
no water
more gifts.
Then in published
dried human cells.


And yes they were active in both.

For example, it has been decided to further use this protein in cell materials and biomaterials in order to keep it dry. So can
the shelf life of
materials that
a lot in the lab
be in-
set, but by-
example also
medications and
maybe even
full organ-
nen (destined)
for transplan-
tation) in the
future are stretched.

Surely this is quite a discovery for them, isn't it?

And all because we
special
proteins in our
carry cells.

This isn't what you were thinking, huh? That such a tiny animal has so many surviver properties?
But actually, it's no wonder. Because we've been around since the beginning of life on this planet.
When the first multicellular organisms formed. Billions of years ago! We
have a
entire evolution
behind the back.


We also already have so much
experienced!

So many distinctions on this planet.
So it's no wonder that we have so many survival traits in our 'march', right?
Maybe you should take a good look in the water or in the mud to see if you can find us. Let's face it, we are definitely worth admiring. Or not?
