The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 6, Page 1681-1707, March 2026.Heteromeric cis‐prenyltransferases (CPT) are indispensable for dolichol synthesis and protein N‐glycosylation in most eukaryotes. The catalytic subunits are strongly conserved throughout evolution, in contrast to the evolutionarily variable accessory subunits. The POC1 protein from Paramecium tetraurelia is the smallest identified CPT‐accessory subunit

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2012 Background Cardiolipin (CL) is an important component in mitochondrial inner and bacterial membranes. Its appearance in these two biomembranes has been considered as evidence of the endosymbiotic origin of mitochondria.

Stable endocytic structures navigate the complex pellicle of apicomplexan parasites
Nature Communications, 2023 Apicomplexan parasites have immense impacts on humanity, but their basic cellular processes are often poorly understood. Where endocytosis occurs in these cells, how conserved this process is with other eukaryotes, and what the functions of endocytosis ...

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 368-387, March 2026.ABSTRACT Members of the oxytrichid genus Cyrtohymena are characterised by a distinctive undulating membranes type, known as the Cyrtohymena pattern, featuring a strongly curved stichodyad paroral that forms a semicircle distally. Although the type species, Cyrtohymena muscorum, has been redescribed morphologically, its ontogenesis remains poorly ...

Metabarcoding and biomass quantification reveal seasonal parasite associations in copepods
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Parasites are important members of ecosystems, and recent metabarcoding efforts have revealed an abundance of microbial eukaryotic parasites in copepods. However, a putative linkage to host community biomass and composition has not been addressed. We performed zooplankton tows monthly for 2 yr at five stations in the Oslofjord, Norway.

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2020 Background Under the threat of climate change populations can disperse, acclimatise or evolve in order to avoid fitness loss. In light of this, it is important to understand neutral gene flow patterns as a measure of dispersal potential, but also ...

Still acting green: continued expression of photosynthetic genes in the heterotrophic Dinoflagellate Pfiesteria piscicida (Peridiniales, Alveolata). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The loss of photosynthetic function should lead to the cessation of expression and finally loss of photosynthetic genes in the new heterotroph. Dinoflagellates are known to have lost their photosynthetic ability several times.

Retracing Storage Polysaccharide Evolution in Stramenopila
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Eukaryotes most often synthesize storage polysaccharides in the cytosol or vacuoles in the form of either alpha (glycogen/starch)- or beta-glucosidic (chrysolaminarins and paramylon) linked glucan polymers. In both cases, the glucose can be packed either
