Why mitochondria need a genome [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1986
The evolution of the mitochondrial genome towards the compact organization found in the higher eukaryotes is discussed. It is suggested that the machinery for co‐translational protein export across the endoplasmic reticulum membrane sets strict limits on the kinds of protein‐coding genes that can be successfully transferred from the mitochondrial to ...

Parallels in Genome Evolution in Mitochondria and Bacterial Symbionts [PDF]

open access: yesIUBMB Life, 2003
AbstractMitochondria, the energy‐producing organelles of the eukaryotic cell, originate from an endosymbiotic α‐proteobacterium. These organelles are believed to have arisen only once in evolutionary history, but despite their common ancestry, mitochondrial DNAs vary extensively throughout eukaryotes in genome architecture and gene content.

The genome sequence of Rickettsia prowazekii and the origin of mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1998
We describe here the complete genome sequence (1,111,523 base pairs) of the obligate intracellular parasite Rickettsia prowazekii, the causative agent of epidemic typhus. This genome contains 834 protein-coding genes. The functional profiles of these genes show similarities to those of mitochondrial genes: no genes required for anaerobic glycolysis are
