Analysis of horizontal genetic transfer in red algae in the post-genomics age [PDF]
The recently published genome of the unicellular red alga revealed a gene-rich, intron-poor species, which is surprising for a free-living mesophile. Of the 8,355 predicted protein-coding regions, up to 773 (9.3%) were implicated in horizontal genetic ...

Evolutionary History of Plant LysM Receptor Proteins Related to Root Endosymbiosis
LysM receptor-like kinases (LysM-RLKs), which are specific to plants, can control establishment of both the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and the rhizobium-legume (RL) symbioses in response to signal molecules produced, respectively, by the fungal and ...

How Mitochondrial Signaling Games May Shape and Stabilize the Nuclear-Mitochondrial Symbiosis
The eukaryotic lineage has enjoyed a long-term “stable” mutualism between nucleus and mitochondrion, since mitochondrial endosymbiosis began about 2 billion years ago.

Endosymbiotic bacteria associated with eukaryotic hosts are omnipresent in nature, particularly in insects. Studying the bacterial side of host-symbiont interactions is, however, often limited by the unculturability and genetic intractability of the ...

The worm endosymbionts in tabulate corals from the Silurian of Podolia, Ukraine [PDF]
Two endosymbionts, Chaetosalpinx sibiriensis and Coralloconchus bragensis, occur in Silurian tabulate corals of Podolia. The endosymbiotic worms responsible for C.

The Symbiosome: Legume and Rhizobia Co-evolution toward a Nitrogen-Fixing Organelle?
In legume nodules, symbiosomes containing endosymbiotic rhizobial bacteria act as temporary plant organelles that are responsible for nitrogen fixation, these bacteria develop mutual metabolic dependence with the host legume.

Evidence for maternal transmission fo a putative endosymbiont in the digestive gland of Pomacea canaliculata (Architaenioglossa, Ampullariidae) [PDF]
The digestive gland of the apple snail Pomacea canaliculata lodges two types of pigmented corpuscles (identified as C and K corpuscles) which has been proposed as endosymbiont/s.

The Evolution of Cell Communication: The Road not Taken. [PDF]
In the post-genomic era the complex problem of evolutionary biology can be tackled from the top-down, the bottom-up, or from the middle-out. Given the emergent and contingent nature of this process, we have chosen to take the latter approach, both as a ...

The gateway to chloroplast: re-defining the function of chloroplast receptor proteins [PDF]
Chloroplast biogenesis often requires a tight orchestration between gene expression (both plastidial and nuclear) and translocation of similar to 3000 nuclear-encoded proteins into the organelle.
