The N-terminal intrinsically disordered domain of mgm101p is localized to the mitochondrial nucleoid. [PDF]
, 2013 The mitochondrial genome maintenance gene, MGM101, is essential for yeasts that depend on mitochondrial DNA replication. Previously, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, it has been found that the carboxy-terminal two-thirds of Mgm101p has a functional core ...

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 72, Issue 5, September/October 2025.ABSTRACT Several distantly related, deep‐branching lineages within the eukaryotic tree of life share what is known as the “typical excavate” morphology. This cell architecture includes a suspension‐feeding ventral groove, supported by complex and specific structures of the cytoskeleton, and a vane‐bearing posterior flagellum.
