Chlamydia trachomatis Alters Mitochondrial Protein Composition and Secretes Effector Proteins That Target Mitochondria

open access: yesmSphere, 2022
Mitochondria are critical cellular organelles that perform a wide variety of functions, including energy production and immune regulation. To perform these functions, mitochondria contain approximately 1,500 proteins, the majority of which are encoded in

Autophagy in DNA Damage Response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
DNA damage response (DDR) involves DNA repair, cell cycle regulation and apoptosis, but autophagy is also suggested to play a role in DDR. Autophagy can be activated in response to DNA-damaging agents, but the exact mechanism underlying this activation ...

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.

Recurrent De Novo NAHR Reciprocal Duplications in the ATAD3 Gene Cluster Cause a Neurogenetic Trait with Perturbed Cholesterol and Mitochondrial Metabolism. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Recent studies have identified both recessive and dominant forms of mitochondrial disease that result from ATAD3A variants. The recessive form includes subjects with biallelic deletions mediated by non-allelic homologous recombination.

Identification of Sequences Encoding Symbiodinium minutum Mitochondrial Proteins. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The dinoflagellates are an extremely diverse group of algae closely related to the Apicomplexa and the ciliates. Much work has previously been undertaken to determine the presence of various biochemical pathways within dinoflagellate mitochondria ...

A Complex Genome-MicroRNA Interplay in Human Mitochondria

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2015
Small noncoding regulatory RNA exist in wide spectrum of organisms ranging from prokaryote bacteria to humans. In human, a systematic search for noncoding RNA is mainly limited to the nuclear and cytosolic compartments. To investigate whether endogenous small regulatory RNA are present in cell organelles, human mitochondrial genome was also explored ...

Genome‐wide analysis of mRNAs targeted to yeast mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO reports, 2002
It is agreed that nuclear‐encoded mitochondrial proteins are post‐translationally targeted to mitochondria, even if, in some cases, a co‐translational phase can assist the import of precursor proteins. We used yeast DNA microarrays to analyse the mRNA populations associated with free and mitochondrion‐bound polysomes.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

The Similarities between Human Mitochondria and Bacteria in the Context of Structure, Genome, and Base Excision Repair System

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Mitochondria emerged from bacterial ancestors during endosymbiosis and are crucial for cellular processes such as energy production and homeostasis, stress responses, cell survival, and more.
