Third Generation Genome Sequencing of the Endobacterium Corynebacterium kroppenstedtii subsp. demodicis Reveals Details of Its Microbe‐Host‐Interaction With the Most Complex Human Commensal, Demodex folliculorum

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
The symbiotic interaction between Demodex folliculorum and Corynebacterium kroppenstedtii subsp. demodicis. Created by the author based on genomic and functional analyses presented in this work. The tripartite interaction between the human host, the mite Demodex folliculorum, and its endosymbiont Corynebacterium kroppenstedtii subsp. demodicis.

Endosymbiosis: Bacteria Sharing the Load [PDF]

Current Biology, 2011
A nested set of bacterial endosymbionts within mealybug cells collectively provides amino acids to their host, but their genomes show that some pathways are distributed between both endosymbionts, while other essential proteins are missing altogether.

Endosymbiotic Evolution of Algae, Secondary Heterotrophy and Parasitism

Biomolecules, 2019
Photosynthesis is a biochemical process essential for life, serving as the ultimate source of chemical energy for phototrophic and heterotrophic life forms.

Beyond red/far‐red sensing: phytochrome perception of the marine light field by microalgae

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2837-2844, June 2026.
Summary Phytochromes (PHYs) are a major group of photoreceptors, described as red and far‐red light sensors in land plants. Recent genomic and metagenomic explorations have revealed the presence of PHYs also in various eukaryotic microalgae originating from distinct endosymbiotic events.

Detecting the Diversity of Mycoplasma and Ureaplasma Endosymbionts Hosted by Trichomonas vaginalis Isolates

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Objectives: The symbiosis of Trichomonas vaginalis and Mycoplasma hominis is the first described association between two obligate human parasites. Trichomonas is the niche and the vector for the transmission of M. hominis infection.

Plastid origin: who, when and why?

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The origin of plastids is best explained by endosymbiotic theory, which dates back to the early 1900s. Three lines of evidence based on protein import machineries and molecular phylogenies of eukaryote (host) and cyanobacterial (endosymbiont) genes point

Infection with the Endonuclear Symbiotic Bacterium Holospora obtusa Reversibly Alters Surface Antigen Expression of the Host Paramecium caudatum

Microorganisms
It is known that the ciliate Paramecium cell surface including cilia is completely covered by high-molecular-mass GPI-anchored proteins named surface antigens (SAgs). However, their functions are not well understood.

Diversity in biosynthetic pathways of galactolipids in the light of endosymbiotic origin of chloroplasts

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Cyanobacteria and chloroplasts perform oxygenic photosynthesis, and share a common origin. Galactolipids are present in the photosynthetic membranes of both cyanobacteria and chloroplasts, but the biosynthetic pathways of the galactolipids are ...

Symbiogenesis: Beyond the endosymbiosis theory?

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2017
Symbiogenesis, literally 'becoming by living together', refers to the crucial role of symbiosis in major evolutionary innovations. The term usually is reserved for the major transition to eukaryotes and to photosynthesising eukaryotic algae and plants by endosymbiosis.

The roles of dispersal limitation and pre-adaptation in shaping Paraburkholderia endosymbiont frequencies in social amoeba communities

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Endosymbiotic interactions have long played fundamental roles in shaping the evolution and diversification of eukaryotes. However, we still have a limited understanding of how ecological processes govern the distribution of endosymbionts that are still ...
