The Chlamydomonas Genome Reveals the Evolution of Key Animal and Plant Functions

Sabeeha S. Merchant, +118 more
- 12 Oct 2007 - 
TL;DR: Analyses of the Chlamydomonas genome advance the understanding of the ancestral eukaryotic cell, reveal previously unknown genes associated with photosynthetic and flagellar functions, and establish links between ciliopathy and the composition and function of flagella.
Journal ArticleDOI

The PET1-CMS Mitochondrial Mutation in Sunflower Is Associated with Premature Programmed Cell Death and Cytochrome c Release

TL;DR: It is shown that the PET1-CMS cytoplasm in sunflower causes premature PCD of the tapetal cells, which then extends to other anther tissues, suggesting that plant mitochondria play a key role in the induction of PCD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ancient and essential: the assembly of iron–sulfur clusters in plants

TL;DR: In plants iron-sulfur (Fe-S) proteins are found in the plastids, mitochondria, cytosol and nucleus, where they are essential for numerous physiological and developmental processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Translocation of cytochrome c from the mitochondria to the cytosol occurs during heat-induced programmed cell death in cucumber plants

TL;DR: The mitochondrial release of cytochrome c following a PCD‐inducing stimulus in both plants and mammals suggests the pathways have been conserved during evolution, having been derived from ancestral unicellular death programmes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biogenesis of cytosolic ribosomes requires the essential iron-sulphur protein Rli1p and mitochondria

TL;DR: The essential character of Fe/S clusters in Rli1p explains the indispensable character of mitochondria in eukaryotes and is associated with ribosomes and with Hcr1p, a protein involved in rRNA processing and translation initiation.
