Protein sorting to mitochondria [PDF]

, 1990
According to the endosymbiont hypothesis, mitochondria have lost the autonomy of their prokaryotic ancestors. They have to import most of their proteins from the cytosol because the mitochondrial genome codes for only a small percentage of the ...

Enzymes involved in organellar DNA replication in photosynthetic eukaryotes

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Plastids and mitochondria possess their own genomes. Although the replication mechanisms of these organellar genomes remain unclear in photosynthetic eukaryotes, several organelle-localized enzymes related to genome replication, including DNA polymerase,

A simplified method to isolate rice mitochondria

Plant Methods, 2020
Background Mitochondria play critical roles in plant growth, development and stress tolerance. Numerous researchers have carried out studies on the plant mitochondrial genome structure, mitochondrial metabolism and nuclear-cytoplasmic interactions ...

Intracompartmental and Intercompartmental Transcriptional Networks Coordinate the Expression of Genes for Organellar Functions [PDF]

, 2011
Genes for mitochondrial and chloroplast proteins are distributed between the nuclear and organellar genomes. Organelle biogenesis and metabolism, therefore, require appropriate coordination of gene expression in the different compartments to ensure ...

Solute channels of the outer membrane: from bacteria to chloroplasts [PDF]

, 2007
Chloroplasts, unique organelles of plants, originated from endosymbiosis of an ancestor of today's cyanobacteria with a mitochondria-containing host cell. It is assumed that the outer envelope membrane, which delimits the chloroplast from the surrounding

Three-dimensional architecture and biogenesis of membrane structures associated with hepatitis C virus replication [PDF]

, 2012
All positive strand RNA viruses are known to replicate their genomes in close association with intracellular membranes. In case of the hepatitis C virus (HCV), a member of the family Flaviviridae, infected cells contain accumulations of vesicles forming ...

Mitochondria: An overview of their origin, genome, architecture, and dynamics

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease
Mitochondria are traditionally viewed as the powerhouses of eukaryotic cells, i.e., the main providers of the metabolic energy required to maintain their viability and function. However, the role of these ubiquitous intracellular organelles far extends energy generation, encompassing a large suite of functions, which they can adjust to changing ...

Loss of α-Synuclein Does Not Affect Mitochondrial Bioenergetics in Rodent Neurons. [PDF]

, 2017
Increased α-synuclein (αsyn) and mitochondrial dysfunction play central roles in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD), and lowering αsyn is under intensive investigation as a therapeutic strategy for PD. Increased αsyn levels disrupt mitochondria

Strategies for maximizing ATP supply in the microsporidian Encephalitozoon cuniculi: direct binding of mitochondria to the parasitophorous vacuole and clustering of the mitochondrial porin VDAC [PDF]

, 2013
Microsporidia are obligate intracellular parasites with extremely reduced genomes and a dependence on host-derived ATP. The microsporidium Encephalitozoon cuniculi proliferates within a membranous vacuole and we investigated how the ATP supply is ...

Mitochondrial Tethers and Their Impact on Lifespan in Budding Yeast

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2018
Tethers that link mitochondria to other organelles are critical for lipid and calcium transport as well as mitochondrial genome replication and fission of the organelle.
