Onsite GTP fuelling via DYNAMO1 drives division of mitochondria and peroxisomes
Nature Communications, 2018 Mitochondria and peroxisomes require a dynamin-like GTPase to remodel membranes during division. Here the authors identify DYNAMO1, a nucleoside diphosphate kinase-like protein that generates a local source of GTP to promote constriction of the division ...

Evolving a photosynthetic organelle [PDF]
BMC Biology, 2012 The evolution of plastids from cyanobacteria is believed to represent a singularity in the history of life. The enigmatic amoeba Paulinella and its 'recently' acquired photosynthetic inclusions provide a fascinating system through which to gain fresh insight into how endosymbionts become organelles.The plastids, or chloroplasts, of algae and plants ...

Plastid origin: who, when and why?
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 The origin of plastids is best explained by endosymbiotic theory, which dates back to the early 1900s. Three lines of evidence based on protein import machineries and molecular phylogenies of eukaryote (host) and cyanobacterial (endosymbiont) genes point

Tannin Reduces the Incidence of Polyspermic Penetration in Porcine Oocytes
Antioxidants, 2022 Tannin (TA) improves porcine oocyte cytoplasmic maturation and subsequent embryonic development after in vitro fertilization (IVF). However, the mechanism through which TA blocks polyspermy after IVF remains unclear.

Cells, 2022 The innate immune response constitutes the cell’s first line of defense against viruses and culminates in the expression of type I interferon (IFN) and IFN-stimulated genes, inducing an antiviral state in infected and neighboring cells.
