Microbody proliferation and segregation cycle in the single-microbody alga Cyanidioschyzon merolae

Planta, 1999
The proliferation cycle of the microbody was studied in the primitive red alga Cyanidioschyzon merolae, which contains one microbody per cell. Cells were synchronized with a dark/light cycle, and the morphology of the microbody and its interaction with other organelles were observed three-dimensionally by fluorescence microscopy, transmission electron ...

Visualization of microbodies in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

Journal of Plant Research, 2011
In Chlorophycean algal cells, these organelles are generally called microbodies because they lack the enzymes found in the peroxisomes of higher plants. Microbodies in some algae contain fewer enzymes than the peroxisomes of higher plants, and some unicellular green algae in Chlorophyceae such as Chlamydomonas reinhardtii do not possess catalase, an ...

Struktur der Microbodies

1978
Die Struktur der Microbodies in Zellen hoherer Pflanzen wurde vor allem in der Arbeitsgruppe von E. H. Newcomb eingehend untersucht (Frederick et al. 1968; Frederick und Newcomb 1969 a, 1971, Gruber et al. 1970, 1972, 1973, Vigil 1970, Newcomb und Frederick 1971).

Biogenesis of Plant Microbodies

1987
The development of microbodies involves an import of proteins across the organelle membrane. Details of this process were studied with glyoxysomal malate dehydrogenase from watermelon cotyledons. The enzyme was synthesized as a cytosolic, higher–molecular–weight precursor (41 kD).

Microbodies in Different Algae

1984
Microbodies with distinctive morphological features in electron micrographs were first described in 1954. Since then they have been seen, not only in many animal and plant tissues but also in protozoa, fungi and algae, indicating that their occurrence is ubiquitous (Hruban and Rechcigl 1969, Gerhardt 1978).

The Biosynthesis of Microbodies (Peroxisomes, Glyoxysomes)

1982
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the biosynthesis of microbodies, such as peroxisomes and glyoxysomes. With respect to biochemical properties, microbodies are characterized by at least one oxidase reducing O 2 to H 2 O 2 . This production of peroxide and its employment by catalase-catalyzed reactions led to the term “peroxisome.” Ribosomes ...

Properties of fungal microbodies

2004
Cells are the smallest unit of life that can exist independently. Based on their structure all cells can be grouped into two main categories: cells that contain complex internal membrane structures, called organelles (eukaryote cells) and cells that do not contain these structures (prokaryotes and archaea).
