Cell ReportsSummary: Mitochondrial calcium (Ca2+) uptake augments metabolic processes and buffers cytosolic Ca2+ levels; however, excessive mitochondrial Ca2+ can cause cell death.

Mitochondria-encoded genes contribute to evolution of heat and cold tolerance in yeast [PDF]
, 2019 Genetic analysis of phenotypic differences between species is typically limited to interfertile species. Here, we conducted a genome-wide noncomplementation screen to identify genes that contribute to a major difference in thermal growth profile between ...

Molecular biology and evolution, 2018 Fish mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) data form a fundamental basis for revealing vertebrate evolution and hydrosphere ecology. Here, we report recent functional updates of MitoFish, which is a database of fish mitogenomes with a precise annotation ...

Transformation of the mitochondrial genome
The International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2013 Although mitochondrial transformation is highly desirable in mammals and plants, it is only possible in two unicellular organisms, the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Here, we give an overview of the attempts made to transform mitochondria of mammals and plants and the possible reasons ...

Origin of minicircular mitochondrial genomes in red algae
Nature Communications, 2023 Eukaryotic organelle genomes are generally of conserved size and gene content within phylogenetic groups. However, significant variation in genome structure may occur.

BMC Genomics, 2018 BackgroundMitochondrial genomes of flowering plants (angiosperms) are highly dynamic in genome structure. The mitogenome of the earliest angiosperm Amborella is remarkable in carrying rampant foreign DNAs, in contrast to Liriodendron, the other only ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Caprella scaura (Crustacea, Amphipoda, Caprellidea), with emphasis on the unique gene order pattern and duplicated control region [PDF]
, 2010 The nucleotide and amino acid sequences and the gene order of the mitochondrial genome are highly informative for studying phylogeny, population genetics, and phylogeography.

High and Variable Rates of Repeat-Mediated Mitochondrial Genome Rearrangement in a Genus of Plants
Molecular biology and evolution, 2018 For 30 years, it has been clear that angiosperm mitochondrial genomes evolve rapidly in sequence arrangement (i.e., synteny), yet absolute rates of rearrangement have not been measured in any plant group, nor is it known how much these rates vary.

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2017 Phylogenetic analyses of nuclear and mitochondrial genomes indicate that polar bears captured the brown bear mitochondrial genome 160,000 years ago, leading to an extinction of the original polar bear mitochondrial genome.

The developmental cell biology of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
, 2005 Trypanosoma brucei provides an excellent system for studies of many aspects of cell biology, including cell structure and morphology, organelle positioning, cell division and protein trafficking. However, the trypanosome has a complex life cycle in which
